Touche'! (But the last people who did that around here were on antibiotics for a month....served 'em right for ignoring that there were children in the area!)Ok Tgirl payback We do it in the water all the time
Cut the seacocks off, remove the lid, pull the strainer basket out and clean it. I also take a wet vac and clean the strainer glass out. Reassemble but be sure to tighten the cap evenly. Don't forget to cut the seacocks back on when done.
'preciate it!Perko 0493 cork gasket set. $15 from Defender. Just type it into thr search on their site.
I may need your contact when I do my haul out. I'm at Priest at FCM.Touche'! (But the last people who did that around here were on antibiotics for a month....served 'em right for ignoring that there were children in the area!)
But now I'm on the right page about replacing the gaskets--thanks!
'preciate it!
Good news--found a guy at my own marina who has really great haul-out prices for folks doing in-lot repairs, so that should leave me more gas money!
Sure thing. You want to wait to see how well he does on mine, or just go ahead and call him?I may need your contact when I do my haul out. I'm at Priest at FCM.

Oh jeez--that bites.They pulled me out today, three days early. I did go out on the river for about an hour before the lift.
New props come in tomorrow and I found out that the aluminum anode don't work in brackish water. All now need to be replaced after only six months. They came out looking just like my zinc after over a year.
Im happy you found someone to pull the boat Tg If they are going to do it soon then just replace those gaskets while the boat is high and dry. You should still try to do the seacocks just to be sure they work and to clean out the strainer baskets. I try to clean mine out about every other month but we have a lot of grass and stuff floating around in the river.
Has anyone changed their inboard props? I'm having an issue getting the prop to get in behind the rudder and onto the shaft. It's a bit to tight. I might try to disconnect the rudders from the bar that joins them together so I could turn them just a bit more
Anyone know the distance between the prop shafts? I just picked up my trailer today and I need to get the bunks in the approximate position. Thanks.
I can measure tomorrow afternoon when I go down to winterize... Man I hate saying that.
Good job!! Can't wait to hear the results. Did you replace the packing for the rudders?
