New starters cost $1600. Necessary expense? Yanmar engine maintenance Part 3. Episode 43

The entire purpose behind doing our own major engine maintenance is to save money, and give old parts new life where possible. We hate the idea of throwing away things that can be saved with a bit of know-how and elbow grease. In this episode we attempt to clean up our existing water pumps and keep them in service for a bit longer. Can it be done? How bad are they? https://sailingroam.com/ ?More about us, our adventures, and how we do all this on our website. More about Roam here ??https://sailingroam.com/our-sailboat/ ?

A couple travelers out chasing the horizon, meeting the people, and capturing it to share with you. We've chosen to Roam the world by boat because, let's face it, the most interesting path is rarely a straight line. As we learn to let go of our American drive to finish, and embrace the meandering routes across islands, oceans, continents, and people, we hope to gain a better sense of our world and our place in it. The path won't always be comfortable or easy to find but, it will always #roam Here's an index of the video in case you want to see something specific: 00:00 Glimpse into this episode 00:15 Intro to episode 00:51 Logo intro 01:09 Disassemble water pump 06:34 Clean up water pump parts 11:25 Wire wheel action 14:08 Reassembly time 18:20 Like, subscribe and thanks for watching 18:23 End Card ----------------------------------------------------------- #boatlife #catamaran #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailboats #nautitech #yachtlife #sailingroam #liveaboardlife #cruisinglife #explore #exploretheworld #refit #catamaranrefit © Sailing Roam 2025
