The key is having the fish box (and lid) well insulated. IN that situation the ice makers are great when installed properly.
Pull and Inspect the shafts. Put the Cutlass bearings in the freezer for a while.....then install.......
Generally they should leak out the weep holes when they fail and not in the crankcase, but if it severely ate the bearings, it's possible it could...
I ran a boat that had the first generation. Owner had the boat for about 8 years and it still looked perfect. Owner's mate used the cleaners...
It's a shame what happened at Southport marina. The good news is it does look like all of them are still floating. I prefer to be in the...

Better. All of it's ride characteristics are better.

60' Hatt SF, 61' Viking. I'd go with something with newer electronic diesels versus old D.D.'s.
