I never noticed (although I never really personally inspected them having owned the boat for less than a year) and the surveyor I had when I bought it missed them completely. Just for my own further education, how did he determine they were not longer fit for service? Has the boat seen salt water? I have only ever had to replace one oil pan in 33 years working on boats (and it was cracked) so this is very interesting to me. |
