Default Re: Hot Stuffing Box on 23 SF inboard CC

Generally as the boat goes faster the water is sucked out of the stuffing box, there for you need to inject water from the engine, this is usually done off the riser somewhere, I would definitly look at a dripless stuffing box, will still need to inject water but you will never touch the thing again, look at PYI inc.
