Received the call I had been awaiting - work is complete, the boat is ready, come pick her up! Okay! So let’s go down the checklist: potentiometers, micro switch in throttle levers changed, chase down loose cable connection on CPU under helm station, prop drive alignment (both engines/drives), engine oil change, engine raw water impellers changed, racor fuel filters (primary and secondary) changed, air and crankcase filters changed; whew, is that it? I think so. I was told by Greg, the Volvo Penta certified tech, that everything was running smoothly and as it should! I hope the weather cooperates - forecast is for 50% chance of rain each day over the weekend. I hope to leave Atlanta Thursday and depart Aqua Harbor some time Friday morning.


We continue to cross off things on our list. Only have the dentist appointment and HVAC furnace check on Thursday to accomplish and we’re headed back to the boat. Oh yes, I need to pick up my repaired computer, too. I was told the mechanical hard drive failed. So I’m getting a new solid state hard drive installed and the computer should be ready tomorrow. Hopefully my external hard drive has done all of the proper “backing up” as it should.


Stay tuned !
