![]() Today it is a relatively shallow sea much of its southern waters are no deeper than 50 metres. Before the last ice age, eleven thousand years ago, it was still land. Researchers of Wageningen University & Research are trying to find integrated solutions to the many issues that affect the North Sea in the area of nature conservation, energy production, marine spatial planning, safety and food supply. The most important of these are are the European Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), the Birds and Habitats Directives, the North Sea Natura 2000 programme and the Common Fisheries Policy of the European Union. And has led to various laws, policies and management plans. After the second or third time, I installed Holley Electric fuel pumps and ditched the mechanical pumps which made the job a lot easier to do.The North Sea requires careful management and this poses a major challenge for society. I replace my impellers every two years so I have done it on my boat 8 times since I bought it and countless times on other boats. Usually, they are stuck in one of the pump's passages.Īs I mentioned, I really don't like the fuel pump and water pump combination. ![]() If the impeller is missing vanes.you must find them or they can and will block the cooling system. The rebuild is a very straightforward process. Make sure your fuel valves are in the off position and then disconnect the fuel lines and remove the entire assembly. be careful removing the hoses and do not pry against the housings. Be careful with the housings because they are ABS plastic and are easily broken. The reason why is that removing the Starboard one is by "feel" since the raw water hose clamps are hidden by the housing. If you haven't done the job before, start with the Port engine so that you can understand how things come apart and go back together. ![]() We have the same engines and frankly having the mechanical fuel pump as part of the assembly just makes it a much tougher job especially on the Starboard engine. ![]()
