The beast i love to hate

   Let me start by saying ferryman diesel is a joke of a company. I finally crawl into the lazarette with it,
to get the photo of the model plate the manufacturer wants so very badly. They sent me a price quote for a rebuild kit. $3900. LOL. Not sure what they think they are selling, but this is a 6HP diesel. The rebuild kit for my Dodge is only $2500, and that is 375HP. So needless to say i will not be repairing this generator. I promised photos.

   Here is the beast i hate. This ugly unit will be expensive to replace. For the long term it will be a good investment.


Here is the rest of the lazarette.For a lazarette, it is very roomy.

What you see here is:
Large grey fuel tank
White antenna tuner
My pink shoes and socks
Blue rear AC unit.

Speaking of the blue AC unit, i now have both AC units working.
This is a photo of the water leaving the rear AC unit, it actually took a lot of work, turns out i had to bleed the air out in order for this to work. Now i can run a second AC unit at port, or one small one at anchor. This unit cools and heats our room and the dogs room. However it is 6000BTU and run alone it will affect the entire yacht. It will also dehumidify the entire yacht, and that is the next issue, the drip pan is leaking. Most likely i need to replace it with a new stainless steel unit. Until next time!
