    Helm pump

    I replaced the O-ring last year it leaked over the winter. It seems that it was leaking at the O ring again . The kit for this pump is 70 bucks. The O ring only comes with the whole kit. Looks possibly difficult to replace all O rings in pump without leaks .

    2 foot fever! !!

    Thats some good points. The survey went well the motor has 120 psi on all cylinders and checks out. The transom has 20 percent moisture I guess thats normal.
