Default Re: Did not have a pleasant morning

Wow ....Sorry to hear this !!!!

Chris, What did they do to the engine once it was back on land ??
I think at this point I would be most concerned with the condition of the engine .... I can envision that being a problem with corrosion in the electrical (computer, oil injection, fuel injection) systems down the road ( I'm not familiar with the motor you have or if the engine even has all these systems). I would guess they got that out of the water, "dried out", running, and "pickled" to keep corrosion overall to a minimum....


Was that thru hull repair you mention the cause ??? anymore details on how she sank ?? Sounds like this was something that the surveyor would not have seen in the pre-purchase inspection

The hull repair was the cause. It was painted over and masked pretty well.

I have to foot the bill for all the fiberglass repair on the boat.

The engine was flushed and pickled within two hours of being removed from the water.

Boat US is paying for the replacement of all the wiring and all the engine controls. If I understand it right they warranty all repairs of this nature for the life time of the boat.

SO, it all sounds good to me. My wife and I have decided to go ahead and do a little more to the boat while it is out of commision. We are not going to go crazy, just get a few things done that we wanted in the first place.

Chris
