Did a routine inspection of my engine Sunday after a brief sail that ended with about 25 minutes of motoring. There was indication of water dripping down from the hot (wrapped) section of the exhaust - could see where a steady drip had followed the hoses down and ended up in the bilge. Seems pretty clear that some part of the hot section failed, which I was expecting to happen - had been seeing it "spitting" a bit over the last few weeks.
I have a hefty winter storage deposit at a yard that is about 50 nm away. Any advice on a safe way to shore up this part of my exhaust to get there safely? With the right weather window I could probably sail 80% of the way.
