My assistant is counting filters - we are going to put an order in for what's missing. I'll be on your boat soon, she will stay back and manage the office.

When you turn your back on it before it's even full - that's when you know you got it. I wish every set and take down went this smoothly.

Customer reports vibration while motoring... I think I know why.

Customer notified me that their bilge pump was not working. I needed to blow out the bilge pump hose with a garden hose and this guy came out for a visit. The biggest spider I have ever seen on a boat ! That bilge pump exit is 1 inch (for comparison sake).

New Beta Marine diesel engine being installed in C&C 30. Small in comparison to the Atomic 4 that came out, but much more powerful & way more efficient. This install calls for everything new; shift and throttle cables, muffler, exhaust hose, sea water strainer, water hose, Racor fuel filter, and vented loop.

It's like a dream come true, a VacuFlush toilet on a sailboat. Dehler 39 - Quality install.

So the good news is these batteries last around 15 years. The bad news is that they cost $875 and are unique to the build of the boat (custom battery box). I need two of them....

Sonnenschein AGM 1000 amp hours per battery. 155 pounds a piece. 20.39 inches long X 10.75 inches wide X 9.37 inches tall. These batteries are like a unicorn, you know they exist but you never see them.

Yelp says Chicago Marine Group is number two. To get to the top of the list, you have to pay Yelp and have Yelp Ads, something that I am not willing to do. Happy with the current placement.

No Bueno... This did not happen at 'my yard' but happened to a very good customer of mine at 'another yard'. Let's see if they get over to it and compound it out now - not this coming spring.
