stinky head

Denr,

First, great to have you back after your week off cruising Lake Michigan. The only thing you missed is that you don''t want a Cape Fear 38 for cruising...........maybe.

Believe it or not, OF COURSE I use Sailkote in my head (errrr......that''s in my marine head, although maybe a shot of it would clear up my nose.) Just this past week I rebuilt the head, and the handpump was working very hard after I reassembled it with new parts. A squirt of Sailkote into the cylinder made it all better, and it works great now.

I even brought the can home and sprayed it on some noisy door hinges. Not as greasy as WD-40. Last year I sprayed some on the stern to help reduce the black moustache from the engine exhaust with pretty good results. This weekend I need to pull the knotmeter paddlewheel to recoat that with Sailkote, which is the best thing Iknow to keep the wheel clean for more than a week or two.

Yep, Sailkote lubes up just about anything. Don''t leave home without it. It''s even recommended by Dr. Ruth.
