I found oil in the bilge sump this weekend. There doesn't seem to be any missing from the engine (Beta 14HP), which is running as normal.
A while ago I overdid the stern gland greaser and a little pile of grease oozed out - I know I should have cleared it up at the time but that's in the past now. Is it possible that this has melted in the recent almost-summer weather and turned from well, grease, to the black oily stuff I have now? If not, given that I can't identify another source what could it be?
Cleaning it up will have to go "on the list" fairly high up now of course - anybody found a list management app that makes the list shorter while you're watching TV?
TIA
