Hello,
I am new to is forum and like many here finally got
fed up with trying to figure a problem out solo.
I take my boat out for day cruises, usually not more than 6 miles
from the marina. The waterways here in and around Sandy Hook
bay have narrow channels and the depth difference along the edges
can go from 10 ft to 1 ft real quick. We also like to pull up to a sandbar
nearby as well.
I am usually very careful and try my best not to stir up sand. In reality
though, it's very easy for something to happen in the quest for mariner
perfection.
I have had to change sensors and thermostats, quite a number times
already. I am wondering if anyone out there has any ideas, other than
not visiting sand bars any longer.
Are there thermostats made that can withstand sand making it stay open?
Would a raw water sea strainer have any benefit?
Is there an inline filter you can install?
Is there a thermostat housing that has easy access to actually quickly
clean off the thermostat? Can you effectively clean off a thermostat
on your own, or do you have to buy a new one every time?
I thank you for any information that could help me.
