What's a sea chest? I don't think I have that.
nobody likes bilge water in the shed
So the flushing should wait until spring then?
That's darn good advice!!! I'm pretty sure the the PO used what our DD expert got him, so it would have been safe, but he didn't flush really,...
The flush that was done by the PO was on the coolant side.
It's getting cold! The boat is in a heated building.
I have "junk" in the coolant side. The raw water is fresh, I'm in Georgian Bay in Ontario :)
When flushing the engine, am I flushing the coolant or the fresh water side, or both? Any advice on that? I'd like to start that next week if...

This may sound silly, so forgive my ignorance. I don't think I have raw water strainers. I see the inlet for raw water but there isn't a...
I'm seeing above 180 on the bridge gauges, but haven't seen above 165 on the murphy gauage. Now I can't be certain, because I slow down before...
Ok then, this is a good start. I’ll flush the coolant and have the heat exchange looked at. I’ll also replace the wires and senders. The bridge...
