what is wrong as he goes along and gives maint hints etc.

What kind of diesels? Lots of good mechanics down here but they are
more specialized. (Cummins, Detroit, perkins????)

Also, a good marine diesel surveyor/mechanic in the same area?


Actually you are better off to get someone from out of the area who
has no local affiliations. Surveyors depend on brokers for referrals.

When I bought my GB in St Pete I used surveyors from the Ft Myers area
and gladly payed their travel expenses. It was a bargain in the long
run.

Gene Sipe for the boat:

Dan Matos for the engines:

They are both first rate guys.
