Hello forum buds... First off hope everyone is safe and doing well, So as most of you know Ive been a inboard fan for most of my life , but time has come where ive gone to the "DARK SIDE " it was a long hard battle but Volvo penta CRAP has turned me. So on may 14th something went wrong once again with the NEW 2019 engine ??(211 hours btw) dont know what it was dont care anymore ...
Made the decision that night enough was enough...made alot of call that friday !!! setting things up
So next day it was 2.0 time!!!!! starting to revamp the "doghouse" drive off, engine out, mile of wires later.... 4 days later boat goes for fitting of pod . get it back on the 25th pod done time for the fun stuff so have to ask how come it takes 1 day to take stuff off but takes 3 days to put it all back together??? hhhhmmmmm
engine set up and on hydros ,electrical,dash,endless wiring!! kicker on re do ALOT of things clean up of old wiring etc and just lil piddly thingsthis past week though lots of 12 hour plus days cleaning up wiring and etc, I can tell you one thing a ton of work to do
New motor is the 350 suzuki duo prop and after the first day couldn't be happier boat handles better... here are the pics before and after not to bad of turn around 12 days!
Special thanks to some great people who really helped me out my main man Jan for his beng a rigging guru, Walt B for his wizard ways of Fabricating,,,,Glen at Coastal run for much needed wiring and supplies..and lastly Todd at Vector marine for really helping on the purchase of the motor and trade in value of my "stuff"
