Hello

1994 Yamaha 175 Pro-V

I finally got to fire the boat up today. It started right up and ran perfectly. I was visually checking things over and noticed a small puddle of water in the pan between the cylinder banks, dead center in the bottom. I also noticed water drops leaking from the exhaust cover bolts. Nothing major just slow drips.

This is not normal and what does it mean? Can I just tighten the bolts or does a gasket need changed?

I started the motor 1 time all last year. Could the gaskets just be dry?

Should it be ran at all?

Thank you
