I am back again. I have a 1986
I am back again. I have a 1986 Chriscraft Catalina 292. Two 220 Crusaders. I have a small bit of water coming in around one shaft at the stuffing box and the other is leaking quite a bit more. Nothing alarming as far as taking on water. My question is two fold 1) Is it normal for a little water to come to keep things cool and 2) Can I just adjust the nut at the stuffing box to tighten up the stuffing to slow the leak.
