exh. white smoke
White smoke in the exh. usually indicateds a water leak into the combustion chamber.
Best do a pressure test on the cooling system, this will let you know if you do have a leak in the system.
Also if you have been adding water to the system as of late this is also a good indication of a leak.

oil pressure drop
There is also a relief valve on the oil pump which my have opened do to a sudden increase in pressure. This is not uncommon but usually goes un-notice it happens so quickly as a rule.

nav/anchor light
Minnetonka
I have a F-26 Trojan an the anchor light on my boat is hinged an will fold down, thus giving you an extra 15"s of clearance.
I believe this is original equipment so you might be able to buy one at Beacon Marine.

Composting marine toilet
I am thinking of changing the toilet in my F-26 to the Nature's Head Composting unit. Has anyone out there changed their toilet an how is it working? Sounds like a good system an if it works then one can remove the black tank and in the F-26 there is a lot of usable space there. www. natureshead.net...
