Boats are constantly breaking down.  Salt water is the culprit, finding it's way into this crevasse or that seal and wreaking havoc with every unseen drop. So if the ocean isn't kind to our boat, we have to pick up the slack. Our pal Bruce hooked us up with his boat mechanic. He came aboard and gave the boat a once over and quickly found a number of things that were missed in the original boat survey.  "Jeff" is like a marine Macgyver. Not only did he fix up our boat at a reasonable cost but he took the time to teach us along the way.  We told him we owe him our first born, but he respectfully declined.  Another friend in Marathon, thanks Jeff!
