just joined but I'm a pretty old hand at most of the mechanicals on sailboats and powerboats, had a shop in
Florida for 17 years where I was the major subcontractor for Gulfstream yachts, we built to 63 feet, also my shop did all sorts of sailboat and powerboat modifications and
repairs in the local
boat yards, I built a 45 foot
commercial fairalight sailboat
Hull from scratch back then for use in the lobster
trade in
South America, I'm now involved with a Erwin 45 that is owned by a friend of mine, just about a ground up
restoration it was in pretty bad shape, installed
Perkins 4108 to replace the piece of junk
Volvo that was in it along with the
transmission and now are starting on the
interior and
rigging and
electrical and
plumbing and and and
. A labor of love I guess.
Anyway I've got a whole bunch of
Marine goodies I need to get rid of that I've gathered over the years and I'll be
posting them here as I get to them.
First item up is a
Perkins 107 with 300 hours on it, after that I'll start digging through the 1 ton truck with 2 tons of crap in it
.
