We used to say a boat buck was $100 and an AMU (Aviation Maintenance Unit) was 10 boat bucks. (At work someone was going on about how their neighbor bought some kind of boat and it needed a *$300 repair!!!!*. I think I said I would be on my knees thanking God for a yard bill that small) Joe Coquina

Did someone change the value of a boat buck? I thought it was $1000. Is this deflation as opposed to inflation?

In my case, IIRC the shaft was scored enough that the entire pump needed replacement--the shaft could not reasonably be smoothed out enough for the old or new O-rings to seal. With a new pump in hand (or a rebuilt one?), it was a simple matter to replace the entire pump--less than 3 boat bucks (~ $270).

So, I replaced the impeller [old one looked perfect after extraction] and the "O" ring seal. After renewal of impeller and "O" ring, I ran engine about 2 to 3 hours, and no leakage was observed. However, yesterday, it was leaking at about 10 to 20 drips per minute while motoring. Are these pumps similar to an automobile water pump? That is, when the auto pump's bearing fails, it starts to leak? Is the leakage telling me that I have a bad bearing in this pump?? Thanks, Pete W.
