Matt good seeing you agian and meeting some of your friends, your boat looked great, not to often you get to see 3 big Excalibers running together, that's over 120' of history. Wish I could have hung around longer. I can't believe a paper towel I left in the bilge put me on the trailer. I back flushed the bilge pump, There was a bounty paper towel rapped up in the bilge pump is why it wasn't working. The thru hull pickups worked great. I had a constant 15-20# Water pressure. Oil temp was 190-200 water temp 100 degrees. Didn't find any leak yet but almost certain it is the doors on the boxes seeping in. I checked the bottom and all looked good there. I'm glad all that work paid off installing those bast ards. A piece of mind knowing the engines are staying cool.

I got my drive showers installed, I'm useing the drive water to shower the drives since I installed the thru hull water pickups. I routed the water right thru the top of the boxes and down to the shower. with 1" hose. I never saw this done before, I may have to put a patent on it. I took off the old showers and filled in the holes on the cav plate. Also drilled and tapped drain plugs in the bottom of the boxes to check and drain boxes when winterizing.
