After being torn apart and weeks of work, the starboard engine is back in one piece and looking prettier than ever with its brand new hoses and fresh coat of paint! Best of all, it started right away. It is a relief to know that Al did know what he was doing after all….
We do all we can to prevent in-season break downs. However this year`s winter project is a little more extensive than just regular preventative maintenance. Last year Al did a complete overhaul of the port side of the engine room, this year he is doing the starboard side. Let`s just hope he knows how to put it all back together again!
Last week we took the Raincoast Maiden to Victoria, then on to Sidney. The trip down the coast was fabulous – we had friends aboard and the weather was exceptional. We are now tucked away in a boat house doing our yearly maintenance. We’re already looking forward to heading back up the coast to do it all again next year!
