Default Volvo spare part on board

Spare Parts/Manuals

Ahoy There Captain:Had a Fairymann but bet the same rules apply.
Before heading south from PEI, called the closest parts
department.....New Jersey. They said the engine/shaft coupling I
wanted must have been installed by builder. When THAT is what gave out
on the ICW in North Carolina, I delved deeper into the parts manual and
there it was! Carrying Spare Parts:Once on my sailboat, and once at
the Gov't field station I managed I saved my **s by installing the
spare parts WHEN they arrived. Guess what, the spare parts did NOT
fit. Murphy works in the parts department too. grin
