Finally, a positive one update.
1. Moonbeam was hauled by noon, per schedule.
2. Mechanics pulled the shaft and will replace cutlass with new.
3. Electrician arrived by 5 pm and took out the alternator to bench test. Plus, had time for 2 additional minor items.
4. Ground connections have yet to be checked.
5. Since the boat is now on land, on a cradle and timber jackstands, we are closer to the office.
6. Many folks continue to stay onboard their boats, even when out of the water for repairs and we plan the same. The only negative: water usage is curtailed and showers and restroom require a trip down the ladder!
Heading now to happy hour after this good day.
Above: 330 ton lift lifting 30 ton Moonbeam.
And below, Veysel, our mechanic, waiting for his partner to pull the propeller shaft.
