Kirk,

I agree with you completely, not only no mess but a new impeller is in
place, fresh tranny oil, new fuel filters, and fresh coolant each and
every year. Also, he would place new oil pads under the engine which I
would check for any possible leaks during the year.

Kirk #124 - Where is the fun in that?  What else is a retired guy to do
but gripe about the projects he chooses to do?  Your response only proves
one or more of the following:
  1) you are still working, and don't have the time
  2) you have more money than you know what to do with (if so, buy a
bigger boat)
  3) you are lazy and haven't yet figured out how to get the wife-mate to
change the oil
  4) you just had your manicure and didn't want those nice black stains
around you cuticles
  5) you don't spend enough time griping on this list about the boat tasks
you love to do
  6) unlike many of us, you'd rather sail than do maintenance chores
  7) you were a stink potter in a previous life, and don't know engines
Out of curiously, how much does it cost to have your oil and filters
changed?

I call my mechanic every spring and the next time I go to the boat it
has
new oil in the engine and gearbox; new oil and fuel filters too. I don't

know what he uses but there's never any mess. :)
