Boat is Back
 
My boat has been out of water since Tuesday waiting for power trim to be fixed. Thought that maybe blew seals. Not as bad as thought, could have been worse. All it was, was the steel screw nut on the oil canister, rusted out and leaked out the oil.

Back in the water today Friday. Mechanic re-tapped hole installed screw and ready to go again. :)

it's not as bad as you originally thought. Especially since with boats it can be much worse than you origianlly thought.

Have at 'em.

Good mechanic !!

He could have sold you an entire new system and charged big $$$ for the R and R. Got to love it.

Now get out there and fish.

My thought exactly, would have been real easy to be porked. May want to drop off a case of suds in appreciation.
