Re: Dinghy Seatrial fail

Pump and housing was fine. Seemed to pee fine once I cleared the tube. Not certain I even had a cooling problem, but if I did, I am hopeful it is now fixed. I think it was the jackets all crudded up. We will see tomorrow when I put her in a bucket prior to a real seatrial.

Re: Dinghy Seatrial fail

Problem solved. Bought Yamaha 8 2 stroke and AB alloy RIB. $1250 total. Sold dink for $500 and motor for $400 with full disclosure. Paid 350 for dink and 250 for engine about 8 years ago. New Yammy had easily solved cooling problem also.
