Default Expensive Spring!

I took the boat to BOE for a list of maintenance items.

The first call was that at some point I had picked up some line in the prop which had then in turn wiped out the seals. The lower unit was full of water and had wiped out the bearings and rusted up the reverse gear. I elected to go with a new OEM lower unit. I am going to take the old lower unit and have it rebuilt at some point and keep it as a spare or sell it to a friend in need for what it costs me to have it rebuilt plus a 12 pack of Natural Light.

Today I got an email that my blinking spreader lights were terminal. I am replacing them with a pair of those cool spreader lights Jim put on the Hard Merchandise from Wicked Tuna. They are nice but pricey.

No more calls, please Jim.

Oh yeah, my annual slip rental is due Saturday....
