Hi Antonio,
Thanks I sure will. It's a nice trailer. What color is your hull? The trailer is painted green.

Re: Yanmar YSM8
Ahoy Daniel— That oil drip appears to be coming from under the alternator bracket. It would seem a simple matter to lift it and see what is going on under. It could be something easy like a worm

Re: Rigging an asymmetrical spinnaker?
#advice
Hi Chris...
A couple of other comments I thought of just now:
I made the spin halyard beefier than required. Thus it serves as a backup for everything.
The spin sheet should be relatively light.

Yanmar YSM8
Hello everybody,
I have a 41 year old Yanmar YSM8 inside my Flicka, which works flawless. Since two weeks (maybe 5 hours of operating) I dedicated a small oil leaking area, which increases slightly -

BTW, here's a pic that I think show setup pretty clearly. Note the sail tack goes to a block which is girth hitched behind the furler. You can adjust sail shape by raising (lossening) or lowering

Hi, Carol,
Noreen from B dock here.
Our PSC Flicka has a packing gland, not a dripless, so I can't compare that.
However, our IP 32 has the same irrigation set-up to the dripless as you show in your

Before questioning the PSS, are you sure everything else is ‘free flowing’ e.g. the heat exchanger, raw water intake (strainer if installed), etc.? Impeller in adequate shape?

Woody’s right: flying an asymmetrical on a Flicka is a blast. I had ATN in Florida make up the snuffer; you can have the continuous line made to any length, and I’d suggest you consider leading it

Fitted a Seldon bowsprit that would extend a couple of feet
