PYI Dripless

[Roger Blake]

Gonna keep a long story short. Had a problem with the water line to my PYI dripless which caused water egress into the boat. When I contacted PYI, they sent, free, replacement parts. When I emailed and said I would be at the Annapolis Sailboat Show, they hooked me up with their folks onsite at the show to get the parts earlier...free...now that is service...and me boat is now ready to go back out.

Be careful with the old ones w/out the water line.  You don't have to have it recirculating just run it vertical above the water line.   

They don't even make the old style w/out the waterline anymore.  Mine was one w/out and it failed.

They also recommend to run your engine at least once a month in gear.

I have one without the water line.

What exactly fails on the earlier ones.
