As you know the boat is in the water. Captain Hyland had the tolerances checked on the motor alignment with the drive shaft. The starboard was within .003. Pretty good. The port motor was .30 out of alignment. This resulted in a decision to have Mr. Dick Wilson, Wilson Manufacturing (who designed and built the V struts) remove the motor, rebuild the motor mount and then reinstall the motor. Scott Hyland just reported the motor has been reinstalled and is within .003 tolerance.
Scott told me the boat will be ready tomorrow afternoon for Lea and I to bring home for the weekend and to begin sea trialing. Next steps will be to run the boat and check things out. Then we must have the marine survey completed. Monday and maybe Tuesday Scott Hyland will need to have the boat back to finish up.
Things are getting real close!
