Damn Willy, sorry to hear of your problems with the boat. The good side is that it seems whatever the problem is, it isn't the engines themselves.. they sound like they were running good, and the fact that they started right up each time is a good sign. I'm sure that everything is in good hands, but if there's anything I can do to help just give me a holler.

Thanks destroyer, so anyhow here is the skinny as of today.
The mechanic says that the raw water pump has a leak, it is actually shot and needs to be replaced. Apparently it was spraying a small amount of sea water on the alternator and just shorted and corroded it out. Needs a new raw water pump, needs the alternator rebuilt. I am having Capt Pete and his buddies go over both engines and repair what is needed. There getting started today, and are then going to run it under load and check it all out and then give me a call. Hopefully I will be up and running in a day or two. A few hundred dollars poorer but I am glad there is nothing major wrong. then I got to get someone with me and go to Point Pleasant and pick her up and bring her home to Raritan Bay. About 55 miles by water.
