The recommendation I was given during a CYA training trip was to let the painter out one wave length in order to get both the dingy and the mother ship on the same part of the wave and reduce jerk loads on the painter. That advice presupposes that the waves are somewhat regular. I have no idea

Always remember, and NEVER forget: When you are approaching anywhere you will be stopping, even briefly, first pull the dinghy up close so you don't wrap the painter around your prop. A floating painter is not 100% protection from this issue. ;-) Bill Bina On 8/10/2016 1:13 PM, S Thomas via

yes, its a 20GM or MG20. Fresh water cooled, uses anti freeze and a raw water pump. I don't think 1 minute would hurt since there is water circulating via the fresh water pump, but not sure how long the raw should take to kick out water. On Wed, Aug 10, 2016 at 9:08 PM, Josh Muckley via

The impeller could be so old that the vanes have taken a set and it takes time for them to get the pressure up. It could also be that a majority of the vanes have torn off already. Double check the belt tension too. It is surprising just how little belt slip it takes for a diminished pump

As has been touched on, in reasonably calm conditions, tow the dinghy so it is going uphill on the first or second stern wave. That will keep tension on the tow line. For longer passages or ones where we anticipate rough weather, we lift onto the foredeck and lash it in place. It's a pain in
