Later the next day a mechanic came over to change out the impellers on the engines. Since we again had no idea when they were last replaced and we have put 1000 hours on the engines we thought better safe than sorry, do it now as Preventive Maintenance rather than have a problem while crossing the Gulf. Jim new he could change them himself but, one of the engines was going to be difficult with the placement. This guy was in this position for more than an hour. This is the first time we had a mechanic do work on the boat, Jim has always done it himself. So I won't complain.......too much. Jim will do an oil change again on the engines before we cross the Gulf and change the oil and fuel filters at the same time. He also wants to do and oil change and change out the impellers on the Genny. But that can wait for another time as its still a bit early for that yet. |

Sometimes it's good to hire a pro, just for the comfort factor, sometimes to save your back.
