New Moon fixed
AT bruthas.... I just got New Moon back this morning after boatfixr winterized and fixed my port engine. The problem I had noticed after the JOTJ run was the exhaust manifold-to-head gasket! 1/2hr labor and I'm all set...got her measured for Imco external steering; we'll see if Santa got my list!

Good news. Looks like BillR was right on the money.

Yup, he got it. I forgot he diagnosed it...Ron Potter & I spoke about it a few weeks ago and we narrowed it down to this. I checked for black soot on the plug wires and sure enough, there's the leak. I thought BillR was referring to the gasket between the manifold & risor, not the head.
I am just relieved she's all set...
