I must have screwed up on the plumbing. This had happened every time I start the engine. Unless I leave the raw water valve closed.
Catalina 30 with an atomic 4.
Fresh water cooling. The salt water side looks like this:
raw water intake-> belt driven pump-> heat exchanger in -> heat exchanger out-> to exhaust.
As I'm thinking about this.... my heat exchanger has another raw water outlet meant for a shaft log. My Catalina 30 doesn't have that raw water connection on the shaft log. So I plugged it. So.... maybe the reason my exhaust is flooding is because of that extra flow rate?
Note that water *does* come out from the exhaust like normal. Nothing looks out of place there.
