PING RICK D

Rick - So how did it run yesterday? Looks like you had a good run and sounded good when you passed by.

That was me cruising the harbor with the family in the dinghy. Then later tied up alongside Bluefin yesterday afternoon.

Hope all went well.

Hey, yeah... I was with Dave who you probably know. Saw you tied up to the Blue Fin.

It ran real well, real steady at 175 degrees and around 40 lbs of oil pressure. I believe I dodged a bullet with the water intrusion. I'm still not getting what I should be getting RPM wise at WOT, but that issue existed before the water intrusion and I have now narrowed it to fuel delivery or intake leak. But other than that I was happy. Need to adjust my starboard engine idle... just a tad low and if you hadn't noticed, it wants to stall at idle which makes my anxiety level go through the roof when I am attempting to dock.

Thanks for asking about the engine.
