I've Been Busy
 

The wife gave me all weekend to work on the boat.

Well, I got both seawater pumps rebuilt. I have 74 hours on the 36, and anyone that says they should not be rebuilt every season is crazy. Mine looked worse than usual and I blame that on two trips in shallow Florida waters. Changes the oil in the fuel pumps, put new two piece fittings on the fuel lines to make removal easier next time.

Then I added a red bezel behind each hour meter.

Added a Billet flame arrester to each engine.

Added a Gaffrig Monster GPS Speedo with Tattle Tale switch.

And finally added two water pressure gauges with the deck mount Gaffrig guage mounts.

I'm tired! If I had to make a living doing this, I could only hope I would be paid by the hour.

Tell me what you think.

Chris,

Thanks, I wish these upgrades did more than make me feel good.

The sea water pumps and fuel pumps are made together on the 500 EFI's. You remove two bolts and the fuel pump comes off. It get a good inspection, you refill with 90 weight gear oil about half full, and put a new gasket on.

There are some pictures of this procedure in the how to forum that OSO did a while back.

Take care Mark

Dock,
The upgrades and additions look great! I especially like the angled bezels for the water pressure gauges. Very trick looking!

It's a good feeling, isn't it?
