Hi Guys,
Think I can demystify this a bit.
Our wonderful departed ambassador , Mike Harker, ran into this, and had do a major engine strip down with the engine below deck.
Basically, the drain pipe from the Lastdrop shaft seal was either plugged up, or sitting in a bit of standing water. This caused a backup into the last drop feed line, and backflowed the engine.
I do not believe there have been any exhaust issues on the 49. I believe they confused “exhaust repair”, with the Lasdrop repsir
I have a difficult time accepting 289 engjne hours over 10 years. Sorry, it makes no sense.
The 49 is a big boat. When the wind dies, you do one of 3 things
Pray for wind
Have a nap
Start your engine.,
And, as you usually have guests on a 49, a few of them want to get back to the dock to check their Internet.
Just sayin,,,
This spring...
My major cockpit upgrade revealed
Stay tuned
