[C320-list] Cutlass Bearing Project

[B. Stumpp]

Troy, 

 

I am the coordinator of the C320IA US tool program (there are also Canadian
and Australian coordinators).  

To my knowledge, there is no set time period to hold onto the tools and
borrowers should just try to be reasonable.   

If you get all the parts you need in advance you should be able to complete
the replacement in a few hours and much less than a day.

Just keep in mind others may be requesting the tools and waiting in line but
I'll be able to keep you updated if other requests are pending.  

When you are ready to start work, request the tools via the website and I'll
send them to you.  

Please keep in mind you must be a current member of the C320 International
Association and are required to pay the shipping and insurance costs to you
and back to me.

Our boat is on the hard for the next 5 1/2 months.  I'm going to replace

the cutless bearing.   I will be ordering the BACK bearing from Duramax

this week or next.   Trying to understand the 'protocol' for borrowing the

prop puller and bearing tool.  Once I have my target date set for doing this
work, what is the general consensus on how long I can keep the tools

etc.   I?m not planning on keeping the tools any longer than necessary but

I'm also not planning on an expletive filled day either...when the project
goes sideways as boat projects are want to do, I'd be interested in hearing

what the general tool borrowing etiquette is.   Can the current US Toolbox

Coordinator please advise.
