Do you suspect the centerboard is actually down? Even in murky water, it seems like a 20 second dive would give you the answer, unless the murk is caused by something nasty you don’t want to swim in. You could always run a line from one side of the boat to the other and walk aft and see if you c

Nothing wrong with multi-viscosity oil at all. I use Shell Rotella 15W40 diesel oil. It has been a long time since single-weight oil was the only viable choice. I even use Shell 15-50 in airplanes now that are right up there with the A4 for antique tech. Joe Coquina From: Josh Muckley via CnC-L

Stus-List Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Accurate Fuel Tank Measurements

Aircraft fuel gauges suck! The tanks are very wide but shallow, so the readings are not very accurate. If you have the better capacitive fuel gauge senders that helps. If you think about a float gauge in a tank that is 4-6 inches tall, the float itself bottoms out at around 1/8 of a tank or so.
