Part 2 Sea Water Found In Fuel Injectors We were preparing to leave for Koh Lipe on a friend's sailboat but the engine couldn't turn. The owner suspects water in the injectors so opened them up. He was right. Water shot out of the second injector. What do we do next? We found the reason but why was this modification made to this previously tip top healthy Yanmar Engine? Can we revive a seized engine that has sea water sitting inside fuel the injector chamber? #shorts #marineengineer #marineengineering #yanmar #sailorslife #sailboats #yachts
We are a New Sailing Couple Preparing To Install Windlass! This is one short video of several that show part of the process. In this video, Chris is dry-fitting the Windlass, which is fitting before any sealant supplies. He cut two large holes--(a 4" and a 3"), for the chain and the windlass. He also drilled 3/8" mounting holes. Our deck was 5" thick--which is exceptionally THICK! He treated the holes with epoxy to prevent water intrusion. If you dig our journey as a new sailing couple, learning to sail, buying a Sceptre 41, getting ready to sail and launching, we would love you to follow along: Join us on our website at: https://gypseaexplorer.com/ Or on our Instagram Channel: https://www.instagram.com/writerjacks/ Or for another windlass installation video, click here: https://youtube.com/shorts/Sx7oWQS4Keo
