Fourth big project in a row is going well. Lots of work done to get this Westcoaster 55 running smooth again. Cheers to John Rodwell and Ben Williams for all their hard work. Should get another two knots out of the old girl now.

Haven’t posted in a while but been really lucky to have two big projects on the go at the same time.

One respraying the superstructure of an SandS 34ft yacht for a very determined lady who absolutely loves her boat. Melanie’s SS will be one of the must lovely and sea worthy yacht in WA. Cheers for the work Mel. 💪💪👍👍. You rule.

The other a beautiful old WA built 79 model Commercial 54.
From removing old built in aluminum fuel tanks to repainting decks. So much work has been done to this old girl. Once again great owner. Great boat.

Haven’t posted for quite a while but thought I would share my experience with Hera (my boat).
Just before Christmas the starboard engine started running on 5 out of 8 cylinders. I’m lucky enough to have great mechanics around me such as Mark of MS marine and Mark Shorto who both said “it’ll be the wet exhausts”. These beautiful lumps of cast iron were only 5 years old and costing over 8k to replace for both engines and I did the usual boat owner thing and thought. “Nahhh no way, I’ve got at least 3 years left in em”. Long story short, the starboard exhaust let go and let saltwater into the cylinders and started turning the oil into an oily milkshake. 🫣. Luckily after 5 oil changes and new sets of well over priced wet exhausts she is all good.
Note to self. 90% of the time mercrusier engines die because of these s**t overpriced exhausts and they need to be checked every couple of years at least.
I got away with it this time but still learning even into my 50s.
Cheers to Mark and Destiny of MS Marine for all their help and Mark Shorto for turning up at the right time just when I needed him.
Long live my beautiful boat Hera.
