A good day today

Finally some good news but not because of Phasor. Hired a neutral third party to find and fix my Raymarine equipment, knot mtr/depth sounder/wind direction-speed and he found and fixed in 10 minutes. Since I was going to pay for 1 hr anyway he connected my generator battery to the charging system.

Everything seems to be working now but the generator. Tomorrow is another day.

Back At Our Marina Downtown St. Petersburg

03/03/2012

Kudo's to Salt Creek Marina

To the staff and management of Salt Creek Marina, THANK YOU for the professional manner in which we were treated during what seemed like a very busy yard.  You made the $3600 yard bill better to take with your diligence and professional behavior during a difficult generator installation.







Out Of The Boatyard

Finally back in the water yesterday and pleased that the engine ran fine after the tank removal.  Gina got the air out of the line and she started right up.  The Generator install if almost done but a few things remain. 

1st  we don't seem to have the 12v reconnected to the panel and so was unable to check all the instruments.
2nd.  Have to connect 12v gen batt to the charging system.  Will parallel on engine starting batt.
3rd  Gen thru hull is still dripping.

On the plus side the clean up and detailing today makes Genesis shine.  All waxed hull and topside and 95% of the bird poop buffed off.  The non-skid never looked better and we are glad to be back in our marina slip.
