I mounted a NAPA 5/16 size metal in-line filter in the metal line going to the carb. Cut the steel line and use A-1 USCG approved hoses with double hose clamps. Easy to change, and avoids vibration failures (seen two of them that could have been disastrous) with bolted in filters.

I managed to install an 18 gallon tank under the Vee berth. Best modification I ever made on the old gal.

PS: I have photos of the install if you want them.

Realistically, what responsible person would deliberately discharge the head into a lake people swim in?

Jeff

Good. Hate to see you high and dry!

I used 1/8 x 2 inch aluminum. Easy to drill the zillion holes, then countersink them so the screws are flush. A good hardware store sells it.

Welcome aboard!

Question: What do OTHER boaters use in that area? If they don't use AF paint, you shouldn't need it. On the Chesapeake Bay your boat would add a ton of weight over the summer time without AF (and half that with it if you don't run it regularly). What does "Barkley was impounded" mean? Jeff

Don't try this after eating a full meal! Yeuch!

As I recall, the new Sherwood G7 I bought for Mr. Starboard had the impeller set up for Mr. Port. I flipped the impeller over and all was well.

Hope that helps.

Once you get access, try cleaning the cylindrical filter in the box. That might cure the problem.
