Folks,
Well I hope to start up my engines this weekend. Remove the cover and then get hauled for a couple weeks to do the bottom and hull. I just about have everything back together now. New/used oil cooler, courtesy of Dick Morland. New risers on the port engine from Marine Manifold, cleaned and painted heat exchangers and tranny coolers, re-built carbs, new port alternator, stbd alternator new last year, rebuilt sea water pumps, belts, some hoses, soundproofing, sea water strainer modification to inlude fresh water hook up as well as emergency pumps, and who knows what else.
Here are some pictures early on. I will try to get some this weekend of the finished job.
