I arrived Feb. 14 Valentines to find 7 people living on board. Don't worry, Kim, Kiya, Noah, Mechelle, Rob, and 3yr old Hania. Gypsywind was in dissrepair, mainly the heat exchanger was missing. So much for preventative maintainance.In November we commissioned some service work mainly, new injectors adjust the valves and timing. oh and clean the heat exchager core.
Well....... the core could not be removed from the housing, so as a last ditch effort I gave the OK to drill out the core to save the housing which is worth $1500 alone. The core is $1750. Its like getting a cavity filled, next thing you know you are paying for a root canal and a crown. Welcome to the reality of boating.
Our dear freind Jay back up Marina Del Rey was the first to ask me "Do you know what Boat stands for?"
