A quick check after rowing out to Wahine.
No water flowing from the engine is never a good sign, so I pulled the impeller plate to inspect it for damage. A bit of crud inside, but the impeller itself looked fine. While I was there, I cleaned the starter and related components to make sure everythin...

Part 2/Day 2 of starting the engine after 9 months. First we weren't sure if we had salt water intrusion but then after cleaning and pulling some parts it appears to be contained 👍 we moved onto a problem that was brought to our attention right before we left (in November) the engine stopped pu...
Engines don't like to sit and boats don't like to be left alone... Sometimes they have to but with some elbow grease they come back! We weren't sure if we were going to recover from this one but by the end of the day there's a glimmer of hope. Ride the rollercoaster with us ;)

This one covers some preparation work for some of the next key jobs. I am saving progress on the Windlass Part 2 video and the galley work one until I can devote an entire episode to each.
Meanwhile, I am exhausted after all that digging. Time for a cup of tea.
Karl's engine had come to a stop in a big storm in Portobelo. Time to go and look for the cause...and try to fix it. It's always an adventure to figure out how to get parts / repairs done in Panama. Come and join me in the search for the cure!
Enjoy and Ahoy,
