You may need to fill the bypass hose with water in order to get to get that side of pump to start working once pump is installed.

If you have other questions fell free to call.

Re: F32: water tank location

The F-32 water tank is in the aft between the two fuel tanks.

If it has been changed just follow the water fill. Generally the water fill hose goes directly to the fresh water tank.

The F-32 had a 40 gal fresh water tank.

Re: F32 Rudder support beam replacement

You need to put it back the same way so safety collars roll pin will fit into same hole. Rudder port is the lower bearing. The top of the rudder should be 1/8 “ or less before the end of the rudder port.

Re: U-boat 13 Meter

Prowersfish is correct. If the hull was not damaged then there is no way for the water to get into the coring.
Other questions feel free to call

Re: dripless shaft seals

It should be noted that in most every Trojan Model the shaft seal hard hose acts as a intermediate bearing.

If asked we never recommend replacing the shaft seal with any type of dripless packing that has a flexible hose.
