Engine saga

Diesel: Working! I managed to find someone (Discount Marine Source.com) that had the offending dipstick tube. They express shipped that to us and I got it in today. So our main engine seems to be working pretty well right now.

Outboard: Not such a happy story. The shop says it needs a new carburetor. It’s only a couple of years old so I’m hoping it’s covered by warranty (Honda). Best case scenario is that we get it back by the end of next week.

Plan: Who needs an outboard motor? I think we’re going to leave Sunday or Monday morning. We’ll head over to Cuttyhunk for a few days. I’ve got oars. Hopefully the engine gets done in a few days. Then we’ll sail back to Dartmouth, pick it up, and head off again.
