The diver arrived at 8 this morning with a big truck and 2 helpers. Both props and the shafts appeared to be all right. The starboard prop was a little loose on the shaft. The props are 1.75" and the shafts are 1.5”. Machined bronze sleeves make up the difference. He tightened both props and that helped the vibration. It also appears the starboard engine is not aligned with the starboard shaft. They didn’t align it properly when the transmission was replaced.
Darrell did some work on the engine this afternoon in preparation and the diver (who is also a millwright and a mechanic) is coming back this evening to align the engine.
While Darrell was working in the engine room, Beth went to the grocery store to stock up in hopes of leaving tomorrow. Then she went on a long bike ride. There is a beautiful park and river walk here that runs along the lake.
Since our stay here was lengthened, we will be here for the Wednesday night concert and fireworks. Tonight we will be listening to Jim Witter in The Music of Our Lives. He sings classic rock/pop hits of the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s.
