[C320-list] RE: Two Questions from San Diego 2004 C-320

[Richard A. Walker]

See my responses.  David I hope you are planning to come to the regatta in
September.

1. The water heater should not be putting water into the bilge; you either
have a leak in the hot water line or the water heater high temp device is
allowing water to excape.  Check the lines and the heater after it is on for
a while.  By the way, shitting off the heater is one of the things you
should do when ever you leave the boat.

2. The spots are from our Dan Diego water.  Most towll off after all washes.
I am trying a new product from Mr. Clean (P&G)that is for cars and works
well.  The company data follows, it does seem to work well with our hard
water:
