This Old Boat!

[MBLMIKE]

Ok a little up date on the old boat was up to Meinke marina Tuesday to check on repairs and get the water drained from the block first A note of importance when you pull the plug on your block to drain it be sure you stick a small pick or probe into the block to remove any sediment that may be holding water in the water jackets I learned this some years ago the hard way. So got all the water out and was able to find the over heating problem the previous owner had installed a new Pocket pump with the intake reversed so was not drawing any fresh water in easy fix . However there was oil in the pump so the Oil cooler is defective another easy fix new oil cooler heat exchanger so so far so good . want to do a shout out to Andy at Meinke for his super help in getting the boat shrink wrapped on short notice did an awesome job cant give the folks at Meinke enough commendation for there help.
I hope every one has a safe winter lets stay healthy both Spiritual , Physical and Mental so we all can get back on the lake in the spring
