Catalina Sailors,I have read the archives on the issue of an undersized (2") heat exchanger installed in my vintage (1986) Cat-30. I have the overheating problem above 24 to 25 hundred RPM. Anything higher and an overheat happens within 15 minutes.I have a very good friend who is a professional pleasure boat diesel mechanic who assured that -everything- with system is fine, except the possibility of a stuck thermostat not opening completely.Question. Has anyone here in the South, where water temps are WARM, summer over 88 F, done the 2" to 3" heat exchanger swapout to have an overheating situation similar to mine resolved?Any and all feedback appreciated.RegardsMark MageeCat-30
