We have a container that looks like a rectangular bottle which suction mounts to the side of the boat over the vent. It catches little dribbles if one is not too attentive to the gurgle. After tidying up, you remove he screw cap and put the dribbles into the fill. Works pretty well. It is requi

In looking on the CNC Photo Page for an engine manual, I see the diesels all lumped together. I crawled into the tiny engine compartment, no small feat for a rather large belly, to find "Yanmar SB8" on the engine label. Is this the same as the 1GM listed ? Allen White C&C

My C&C 26 with a single cylinder diesel ( SB 8? I think) has only a thru hull and sea cock, then a hose to the pump. The boat came from Lake George in upstate NY, a pristine fresh water lake that you can drink from. I think I should have some sort of strainer between the thru hull and the pump now

My club is in the Hudson River about 75 miles north of the Big Apple. We have tidal currents that approach 1 1/2 - 2 knots at times from either direction, with wind it can be very tricky getting into your slip. When the current is running out of your slip, going in gently and controlled is easy. Wi

y point is: If your engine cannot reach full RPM it is not achieving full rated horsepower. The pitch of a prop may be more important than the diameter or number of blades. Martin Calypso 1970 C&C 43 Seattle -Original Message- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Be
