Now that the fuel issue is being addressed, I will have the opportunity to install a new exhaust riser. If you recall the old riser blew a hole through the elbow before we reached Bodega Bay. While there I made a temporary fix with JB weld. Since it had to be removed to access the injection pump through the companion way, I will install the new one now.
Of course any time you repair something on a boat, there is always something else you discover needing attention, or repair. This time was no exception to that general consensus. Yesterday when I leaned over to set the old riser down in the cockpit, I leaned on the wheel and as it turned I heard a snap deep in the hull. When I turned it backwards it repeated itself. Okay, I know the problem, as I have dealt with it before. The cable end is catching on something. I will have to deal with that before we leave. Seems like it is always something!
