After a couple of years of small drips, my 32 year old Yanmar started leaking transmission fluid at an ounce an hour while motoring last weekend. Probably from the forward seal – where it meets the engine. It’s the big flange – I’ve tried to get in there to tighten bolts but not been able to move them with the little wrenches I could get into the small spaces. Dockside advice is I’ll have to have the engine pulled. Meanwhile I’m stopping, checking and filling every 2-4 hours if motoring to keep the tranny fluid at normal levels, and catching the leak in a dishpan under the engine.
Any ideas? If I’m paying for engine in and out, what ELSE would people recommend? I’m thinking possibly motor mounts…… and I’ve always had a small oil leak too (I know, they say Yanmars never leak….).

It wasn’t a big deal for them. Also, it was many hundreds of dollars cheaper than ordering from a marine shop. If you still have the old pulpit, it should be a cinch.

Tops in Quality is no longer in business but White Water Marine took over their website and it appears their blue-prints. They have quoted me $1357 plus shipping for the pulpit. They have recommended that I get replacement stanchion bases (available from South Shore). I have no clue if this is a reasonable price - nor if their quality is the same as Tops. If anyone has any experience, good or not so good, I'd like to hear.

They are still in business, and I bet they still have the figures/specs. Even if they don't have the original specs figures, they have a pretty good measurement form to make a custom one. I had them make a rear pulpit for an older boat I had (it never had one before), and it came out perfectly and fit correctly. They shipped it by truck. -Keith Morgenstern _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> -- Joel 301 541 8551 ________________________________ _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
