Angel Island boat trip did not go well. Mechanic n

Oops I forgot small and medium wire side cutters and cable ties, on the cable ties you need the ones that are UV, oil and gas resistant otherwise they will start breaking in the marine environment, always cut the tag end of the cable tie too, don't leave it flopin in the wind like an amerture.
 
You need bib coveralls and embrodiery on the back or chest "Wayne Gearhead in training" being belly down on the floor in and out the bilge you need suspenders.

That hole in the water quote is coming true in my case as well.





LOL I changed my signature because, now with my boat being 18 yrs old, that saying holds way to true! Yours is a baby at 8 yrs......

What to get for tools? Now this fun and I am sure others would love to chime in and we might want to start a thread: bent needle nose pliers, slip joint pliers, water pump pliers (channel lock is a brand), phillips, flat blade and torx screw drivers, 1/2 and 3/8 rachets and "click" in-lb and ft-lb torque wrenches, metric sockets, extensions, universals, metric deep sockets, metric allen wrenches, metric combination wrenches, crimper striper, various spade connectors, heat shrink tubing, heat gun, the deep socket for your spark plugs, the deep socket for your prop, o-ring pliers, good multimeter, brass brush for cleaning contacts, flat and wire feeler gauges...






Test light is always good for preliminary electrical diagnoses, or better yet a Power Probe with built in volt meter/ohm tester.
