    Rudder posts weeping water. Is it a big deal to fix or adjust?

    Check if you can tighten the stuffing box packing gland Most likely a Buck Algonquin. If you need new packing, it's cheap. Many have a grease zerk as well Agree with Kenny, if you hit something, that damage would not be an easy fix

    New-style 6.2 SeaCore Closed Cooling Question . . .

    threads are 1/2-13. per my guy, its a seawater pressure port for a seawater sensor. however since you already have a seawater pressure sensor on the PS cooler, you could get a small pencil anode in there if you wanted.
