1GM Diesel Reconnect to Cape Dory 25D - Voyage Dreams 98
At long last I begin reconnecting the Yanmar 1GM Diesel engine back into my Cape Dory 25D sailboat. Additionally, I start the creation of Dorade vents and resurrect an old bilge pump to use as a back-up .

After a MUCH longer time expected to get the Yanmar 1GM Diesel back together, I finally get an opportunity to re-install it to my Cape Dory 25D sailboat. I also install a new engine controller and reveal why my videos have been released only sporadically the last few months.

I continue work in prepping the boat for the re-installation of the Yanmar Diesel engine, including patching some holes with fiberglass and an attempt to service the engine controller. There is little access behind the engine and fuel tank when installed, so I take advantage of their absence.

With the Yanmar 1GM engine removed from the boat, I'm able to access the fuel tank for removal, inspection and cleaning, along with the many old hoses found behind the engine. What I find while cleaning the tank is disconcerting, but it's all a part of getting the Cape Dory 25D prepped for the re-installation of the engine and, eventually, long distance voyaging.

After several months of hiccups and delays, I finally put the Yanmar 1GM Diesel engine back together with new piston, rings, bushings (and more) and start it up.

I found a used 1986 Mariner 2-stroke outboard on Craigslist for $50 here in the States. Will it run? I was told that the main trouble was that the handle is broken, but knowing little about 2-strokes I figured the price was good regardless of condition because I could learn a lot in any case. In this video I step through checking the possible big issues and test to see if it will run. If I can ...

Very nice tour. I'm looking at buying one. I like that it's a full keel and can go offshore. I like the designer of it too....
I really appreciate your project. And I am glad to you posting more again. I have been on board from the beginning and am looking forward to more, wherever it takes you! Fair winds and following seas!
Thanks a ton for sticking with me. I really appreciate it!
Have you considered the possibility of buying a trailer and renting a truck, or paying a driver, to bring the boat close to home? One of the aspects of your boat that I find appealing is the freedom from boat yards. I imagine being able to spend more time refitting with the boat nearby.
Well done Owen! A bargain, i think! Best wishes from England.
Thank you for watching and for your kind words
You should've unbolted the coupling after you pulled it together, THEN checked alignment. I think your shaft just slipped aft, as yet, you haven't actually aligned everything so it will likely vibrate.
Yes looks like he just needs to bring the shaft in.
This is really good advice. Thanks for your input!
This is the most honest review on this motor I've seen. I have recently purchased a similar model and I intend to give it a full overhaul, I think they are great outboards. Thanks for posting. Best wishes from Northern Ireland 👍
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it.
Hey Owen I enjoy watching your videos as I too am wanting a Cape Dory or an Alberg 30 for a restoration project. I have to ask what is the headroom in the cabin? I am 6’1” and don’t want to stoop down to walk around inside. I am in central Washington aways from sailable water. If you have a line on a project boat, I’d take a look. Do you currently still have the 3 boats?
I think parts of the interior of the CD25D might be very close to 6'1", but likely not quite and only a small part of the cabin provides that height. I haven't been looking at other boats, but I'm sure there are plenty out there. Enjoy the search! I only have the Cape Dory. I sold both the Alberg and Tanzer boats years ago.
owen, you've overcome the big hurdels, all easy sailing from now on in. thx, always enjoyable and llok forward to many more.
Thanks for your comment!
Glad to see you back Owen. Please post a little more frequently.🚢
Thank you! I'm working on it
Owen, Scanmar Marine has the Cape Dory 25 on their list of boats they've had Monitors installed on. They could probably make up the mounting tubes for it.
Thank you! Continued parts availability is one reason I decided the Monitor would be a good option.
Am fixing to refit a 25d myself so thanks for the info and ideas.
You're welcome! All the best for the refit
Owen, you can get a welder to spot weld those corrosion points with stainless stick/tig/mig. Then grind smooth, and you'll never even know they are there. Nice score. Good too see again.
Thanks for the tip and for your kind words
Good to see you post again 🎉
Thanks for sticking with me. :) More videos coming soon
Oh you tease us so Owen.......vid every quarter. But good to get you back
Thank you so much. More coming soon
Wow! Great video for me. Very very very very helpful. Thank! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
You're welcome!
followed - I have just acquired one of these single bangers, its in fairly good condition but making sure I can refer back to your videos.
Owen, great videos. What grit did you use to hone the cylinder? How did you decide what grit to use?
Hi Marty! I'm fairly sure I used a 240 grit hone. My thought was to avoid getting too aggressive with it, but I also needed to clean up some small grooves so didn't want to go too fine either. In the end I kinda guessed and it worked out well for me,
Check thermostat
??
I’m thinking that you might be needing a bigger boat? 🥰
👌
Ah yes the pre-combustion chamber $$$ and the entirety of the Yanmar injector parts are $$$$ And the bonus - the injector pump per my 2 gm
Thank you so much for showing the mast mate!
What fuel filter is that you bought/used? Thank you for the help.
Very interesting
Muy buena tu explicacion.!!!
This video sums up my entire refit haha. Trying to do one project leads to so many more. A cascade.
should crank the throttle wide open when doing the compression test.
How did you find the parts for it? I'm having a hard time with my 87 odd serial number

Owen your video was so great and informative It makes me want to buy an old diesel and rebuild it!!! Do you know what your total cost was on this project?
Thanks for watching, Doug. I didn't keep track.

cleats are no big deal. Dude they will take a lesser offer and I started on a 32 ericson MK III No problem.
Hi Owen, you have a great boat and channel I enjoy your content as I am also working on a Cape Dory too. I have a group of CD owners in the Portland area, a 27, 30 and 33. It would be great to meet up with us at some point. BTW the 25D is my favorite design.
Hi Barnaby, thanks for watching. I apologize for the delay to my reply. I'm mostly working when at the boat, but it would be nice to meet up after hours. I hope to be back again in the next couple weeks.
Thanks for the vids! Where does the kill switch cable run from the rear of the control panel? Mines frozen up and needs to be replaced. Thanks!
Nice setup
:) nice one of these days ll have to take a road trip and come see you and catch up or if/when you get up this way
Road trip!
What's material is that
It's aluminum
Just bought a Tanzer 22 these vids are extremely insightful.
Did you install the head gasket with the sheet metal up or down?
Thanks for your question. Honestly, I don't recall. The service manual indicates that the OEM head gasket is marked with "Top" on the side that goes against the cylinder head. I likely don't remember what the surface was because I just followed that instruction.
Thanks for sharing
Hello thanks for the videos I have a yanmar ysm8 and I'm having issues with finding parts did you order offline or did you go through a dealer any info would greatly be appreciated
I ordered parts through a regional authorized Yammer repair shop. I don't know about the ysm8, but parts are readily available for my engine. The dealer was readily able to ship the parts I needed anywhere I needed them.
Thanks so much for this video. I didn't think I could replace my own mainsail slides (slugs) and this video gives me confidence to fix them myself.
Thanks for your comment. I was hoping someone might find it useful. All the best!
Yes I like that squeezing in the cockpit locker to work on the stuffing box...😂. I' m doing this also, can't await next time
Thank you for showing us the boat. Lookung at a beat up Westsail 32 in Hawaii.
Awesome! You made it simple enough that it's easy to follow
This is too painful. Too many recipes. You're lost and not humble. What your mill needs now is expertise. Someone who will strip it to zero, mike everything, do proper replacement, paint, reassemble, and merge your motor with a lightweight heat exchanger and proper fluids, which it never had.
Where did you order your gaskets from? I'm having trouble finding the right head gasket for the Yanmar 1GM. Thanks!
There is an authorized Yanmar repair/parts shop near the boat. I ordered direct from them. You should be able to order any parts you need from any authorized Yanmar shop. Mine, Cook Engine in Portland, Oregon, shipped parts to me when needed.
Hi mate thanks for your video. I’m currently changing the head gasket on my 1gm. I couldn’t help noticing that the head gasket you put on had the waterway holes block off on the gasket??? Is that correct? Thanks Phil 🇬🇧
Hi Phil, thanks for watching. I was skeptical of the blocked holes too, but that is by Yanmar's design.
@@VoyageDreams thanks for your message back. I will just fit it then… all the best Phil.
I know him!! He’s in my house right now actually!
Slay!!
Very good job, I have a 2gm engine and in the future I will do the same. Thanks for the video.
