Default Smart decision by Zac

Do you have his blog URL? I seem to have misplaced it. Smart move,
definitely. It's better to wish you were sailing than wish you weren't.

Looks like his engine problem is in the fuel line. The engine was switched
from gas to diesel but they didn't replace the fuel line. Really bad advice
on a $6000 boat. I had an original factory (1980) fuel line which was
clearly restricted on my boat due to the max RPM increase when I replaced
it. Looked fine but who knows what was going on inside.

Ah.. thanks. I found it right after I posted.

Kid has guts to undertake such a voyage, especially alone. There aren't many
who don't do even close to this.
