Well Chuck, Darrin, and I did a little work on the 4.5hp diesel Kubota yesterday. I got a honer at harbor freight and honed the cylinder until it was nice and clean. When we opened the package of new rings we instantly knew they sent us the wrong ones as they were at least twice as large as they should be. Chuck called and the new rings are being delivered today.
I met the guy that lives down the street from Chuck and he offered me his dock. He is leaving on vacation for a week and would like to have someone around the house. We will motor down there today; it should take about 45 minutes. The sky iws growling so it may be a wet trip. We’ll have water and power, WOOT! I’ll be close to Chucks to work on the motor and get some projects done.
Darren was over yesterday using our sailright to re-stitch his bimini. I’m glad he’ll be out of the sun for the next trip. He is just starting not to peel and pick at the horrible sunburn he got on the trip up here.
I’ve been spending some time plotting and studying charts. We may stop in
Cheers all.
Sail far and live slowly.
