I just wanted to say hello. I just got Hull 46 w original a4 I love when people say they must have diesel.
It has one gate valve and one ball valve on pipe that needs to come out.
I m told it was year 1974. Or 1975 model.
Its hard to tell what was original and what they replaced. Raw water cooling intake and riser new.
It was in fresh water for life till now.
I ll inspect hull better when I pull her for laminate issues. I fixed deck soft spots and I m going to pull fill and redrill / bed all through deck and through hull. Pull the windows. Add backing plates.
I will say I had her out in 25 k yest and if key did not break off in ignition it would have been fine day.
i hot wired her after anchoring in lee of pier.
but in narrow home channell my jury rig fell apart engine died . We went w jib and sailed to mooring. they said. I was showing off. I failed to mention I left key in ignition and on a tack broke it off.
nothing motivates like a sandbar outgoing tide and lot of wind.
i ll have lots of questions I m sure.
Thank You in Advance.
