I went to the water again. But this time I put the engine back in!
The weather was a little better this time. Sometimes I could even take off my gloves. Pics were taken by John, my brother and psyco-boat dude.
Mr. Bun was off down the beach baiting eagles with rotten fish. What a stinker!
Photo 1 shows the block rig for lifting.
Photo 2 shows me cutting the old coupling off with a cordless sawsall.
Photo 3 shows me doing something, I can't remember what, with the shifter.
number 4 shows the engineers berth.
Last: the engine going in the Toyota for the trip.
I almost got it started in the boat, but the batteries were dead and I ran out of time.
I'll have to go back in May to make it go for real.
Man I love working on a clean machine!
Think Spring,
Russ
