But I can't imagine we've run the engine much more than 30-40 minutes
total. The longest we ran the motor is from the other side of hart island on a
dead day. It's been run in the slip more than an hour
though.

All the ways to screw up a good diesel. You'll be rebuilding in a couple of
years. Once again .......... You know nothing about boats.

Running a diesel engine
that is essentially idling and not under load is supposed to be the
worst thing for an engine.

Who said it's not run under load. The engine is run in-gear in the slip.

Woo whoo?

Who said it's not run under load. The engine is run in-gear in the

Well, he had a really, really crappy boat... or he is a crappy sailor.

Yeah, but unlike Scotty and Scout I don't have problems steering my boat into a
slip!

Bwahahahahaha! It took 3 tries!

RB

Well, that's better than steering yourself into a slip.
