Just got the manifold and bell housing back from being ceramiced and thought you might like to see the terrific job done by Competition coatings here in Lakeland (FL). Only $ 60.00 each and that also included the windless. I was responsible for disassembly and reassembly. also a photo of the Gen-Set that will be in the starboard cockpit locker, hopefully by tomorrow. The phone number to competition coatings is 863 606 0068. Wish I was sailing Roscoe | |||||||||||||

Just a few pictures to show we have been doing some work. Waiting on the heaters and motor mounts before we can finish the engine. we installed the Gen Set today. had more problems building the mounts than putting it in. Ordered a Blue Sea panel #8086 should have it in a week or two Every thing I have on order will probably arrive at the same time. Sure wish I could find the original wiring
schematics Hope to get it wired before installing the engine. | |||||||||||||

The hot water heater was disassembled, cleaned, inspected and reassembled A thermal box was fabricated with R6 thermal board before installing in port locker. The water heater will be to port of the muffler foreword of the battery bank. This will shorten all hoses and make for a compact installation. The motor mounts are coming from Beta Marine with the heaters I'll let you know the measurements when I get them. I think the oil cooler is tucked in close enough to be out of the way of all accessories, only when I install the engine will I know for sure. I am building a pedestal for the Westerbeke control panel to make it visible when standing behind the wheel, I am also installing cockpit drains in the rear of the cockpit. The control panel for the Gen Set will be where the original switch panel was and the new panel will be to the rear of the nav-station and the refg. I also have the electrical diagram for the Westerbeke, however the 12 volt wiring for the rest of the moat looks like a bowl of spaghetti. | |||||||||||||

Some $2000.00 and 50 hours later later it is nearing time for the test run. I'm waiting on the heaters and motor mounts before test running. Maybe this week. In the meantime I'll get onto the wiring. | |||||||||||||
