I recently overhauled my coling system on my Hunter Legend 37 that is equiped with a Yanmar 35 hp diesel fresh water cooled engines that operates with a raw water heat exchanger.I replaced the impeller, cleaned out and repositioned the raw water strainer below the water line to improve water flow, replaced the mixing elbow and hoses and visually inspected the heat exchanger for any obstructions. I went from no water in my exhaust to plenty of water until yesterday, when suddenly my engine over heating alarm went off as I was motoring back to my slip.Once docked I checked for exhaust water and some was coming out but not as much as before. What could be the problem? I did notice some sea grass floating around, could I have plugged my intake or could it be something else.The raw water stainer appears to be clear of any debris. The engine performs beautifully but this lack of exhaust water is starting to bug me. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.Thanks Everyone,Barrie
