While crossing the Mona Passage, 35 nautical miles offshore, we ran into trouble with our Yanmar 4JH4E. We were motoring in light winds when we noticed a change in the exhaust pitch — turns out, seawater wasn’t flowing properly. We checked the impeller and, strangely, it looked intact… but it could spin freely by hand — not a good sign. After getting towed back to our anchorage at midnight (huge thanks to Michael, who came out and saved us!), we dug deeper and discovered that the gear inside the old water pump had worn down badly. It turns out the pump wasn’t making full contact with the internal gear, likely due to an aftermarket impeller and shallow gear engagement. We ordered a new OEM water pump from R&B Power in San Juan, and they were awesome — super responsive and got us the part

Such a cool side-mount diving configuration was shown by our #divebuddy here as we dive into the popular #divesite in #Komodo. It seemed like he checked on our itinerary before the trip by bringing the proper gear to dive at this particular dive site. Fantastic enthusiasm, Mate! One of the dive sites in #Komodo is indeed famous for its strong currents, which makes this technique the perfect application, which can help reduce drag and improve hydrodynamics. This technique also can lead to better air consumption and enhanced maneuverability, which obviously will make your diving experience more enjoyable. If you've got any other tips for getting effective and efficient #underwater diving, drop 'em in the comments below.
