I would like to make the suggestion that individuals who pose
questions, especially complex questions like the recent Yanmar
governor problem, be encouraged to post the results. What did he/she
do and what was the result.

We all learn from experience, whether our own or others and I feel
that a follow up post telling the group what was done and what was the
result would be beneficial to all readers.

I still don't know if the guy fixed his governor and what he did to
repair it. If the guy down the dock has the same problem how will I be
able play expert and tell him how to fix it :-)

I certainly intend to document my light upgrade to LEDs, as well as a few
other electical upgrades. I like to have a photo history of what I did, not
to mention a maintenance record.

Obviously, Roger photo-documents his boat changes. Do others? I find them
interesting and informative in and of themselves.


There is a chap down the dock that has just converted his complete
lighting system to LED both house and navigation lighting. I have a
standing invitation to drop by any evening and see how it looks but
haven't made it yet. He is working on running the entire boat on three
solar panels.
