We failed to figure out the issue ourselves, so many thanks to the great people at @nanaimoyachtcharters for the tow and mechanical assistance. A combination of a faulty thermostat and what looked like half a shredded impeller (not the current one which was fine) stuck in the heat exchanger seems to have been the issue. Never would have figured that out on my own :-(Made it back to Montague safely and are set to try it all over again.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/macblaze.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/447823183_18437115781000244_6570128454786374398_n.jpg\" title=\"Instagram Since Last Time\"><img src=\"https:\/\/macblaze.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/447823183_18437115781000244_6570128454786374398_n.jpg\" alt=\"Instagram Since Last Time\" \/><\/a><br \/><figcaption>And now we\u2019ve got them all out. #downwind<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure><a href=\"https:\/\/macblaze.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/448049551_18437104666000244_2028928403344459636_n.jpg\" title=\"Instagram Since Last Time\"><img src=\"https:\/\/macblaze.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/448049551_18437104666000244_2028928403344459636_n.jpg\" alt=\"Instagram Since Last Time\" \/><\/a><br \/><figcaption>\u2026over the ocean blue\u2026 Downwind @ 5 knots on just the jib.
