My raw water cooled 3QM30 runs at 111 F. I hate running a diesel that cold,
but that is what the manual calls out as the design temperature.
I also have a very small raw water intake line, so pulling any cooling water
away from the exhaust system would most likely damage the system.

Ray,
On my C&C 38 the bilge pump is routed into the overboard discharge of the sink
in the head. If the discharge line becomes partially or fully blocked, the
bilge water will back up into the sink. I would first check the overboard
discharge valve and ensure it is fully open. If it is open,
I have a great example of why we all love C&C's! I have rigged the boat to
sail single-handed, and upgraded most of the boat including new refrigeration,
shore power, instruments, sail track and self-tailing primary winches. The
boat is listed at $49,900, but reasonable offers will be consider
