Thanks for the info and advice folks. To relocate the intake I have to take the boat out and maybe gain extra 3 to 4 inches by the keel, but it work fine for 27 years. Yes the engine is in the forepeak and has a long shaft run under the mast step (a box) then to U joint and a short shaft to the propeller (b etween the fin keel and the rudder) same as 1980 Yamaha 30 and 33 sail boat (popular concept in 1980 by IOR). I will send a picture if I can find how to do it. I will flip over the cover plate and re route the hoses for shorter run and install a breathe tube or tank.
