Good question. I suppose it is possible but seems unlikely. The fuel pump ought to be able to overcome that. Can you drain the trap? I would drain or remove the trap and try it. Try a new P-trap designed for the purpose. Might want to check the operation of your fuel pump. I just put my

Could be the carburetor. I've had this issue too many times. I chose to take off the carb, break it down completely and clean it out. Moyer Marine's A4 guide is very useful. Brian s/v Rekofa The Blue Whale 1979 CC 34 Baltimore, MD Dr. Brian C. Morrison On Aug 10, 2014, at 9:48 AM, Burt

Does anyone have experience with the rope antenna. It certainly appears to be an alternative to using the backstay and does provide options for placement. Is there any reason to not simply wire tie it to the backstay? As it is insulated I don't see an issue from the radio side. Perhaps

That would be the CC 37+ named Gitzi, a 1989 model with a wing keel. If you look carefully you will notice lots of small changes (like hatches where winches usually are located) have been made to this boat by this owner.
