I paddled our Cape Dory into its slip at Nanticoke Harbor at last this past Sunday, hoping to get in some end of the season sailing. I put a freshwater A4 in the boat this past winter and was finally able to motor out of our slip, turn around, and tie off bow first.
I have found the waxy material from the packing coming out a little through the front of the bronze housing. no water, so I plan to loosen up the nut and adjust until I reach a proper drip rate.
Temps remained around 160 through about 1/4 hour of running.
Will report more when other test trips are complete.
