Good news – both engines are back in the engine room (along with new tanks)! The port engine is all hooked up and ready to run for the first time in over three months. The starboard engine is resting on the stringers, but not yet fastened in place with the engine mounts. That will be accomplished today, along with reattaching all of the hoses, lines and cables. With a little luck, the generator will be placed in the engine room today.
After reconnecting the electrical system, starting the engines, and making sure that everything is operating properly, the only thing left to do is to haul Sanderling for a short while (keeping her in the slings) to clean the bottom and replace any corroded zincs. Then we’ll be out of the boat yard and back in our marina.
