    Johnson (Suzuki) 90: Another midsection corrosion failure

    Resurrecting this thread because...the JB Weld patch finally fell off! The boat is now at Jacobsen's to have the entire oil pan casting replaced. Can't remember if I mentioned this, but I sourced a used (freshwater-only) oil pan off eBay for about half the cost of a new one. Cleaned it up, and...

    Two Lucky Fish +1 is here. I'm exhausted. Hey, I notice there is a Wi-Fi network here called C-Dory; who is that? Is it for the group? If so, what's the password? :-)

    Our troubles are a bit more prosaic than those of the Daydream and Salty crews; The "mild sinus irritation" I've been fighting all week has become a full-blown head cold. I'm going to take it easy at home this morning, and depending on how I feel, we may head out later today, or early Saturday.

    We'll trailer up to Cornet Bay from Seattle late Friday morning, and hopefully launch a bit after noon.

    Two Lucky Fish +1 will be there. We plan to attend the dinner Friday, so that means two adults and two big kids, "plus one" Tristan who won't eat much. Also, on Saturday and Sunday mornings, I'll be testing my brand new 99-cent pot skirt. Should be interesting...

    Seattle Boat Show - Friday 1/31/2014 - BREWERY dinner/talk

    Roger & Pat: I have a work-related database update that I need to execute immediately after 7 pm on Friday. Does the brewery have WiFi I can connect to? Thanks! Tim

    Seattle Boat Show - Friday 1/31/2014 - BREWERY dinner/talk

    Put me down for two on Friday night. A bit tentative right now, but looking good. It would be me and a non-C-Dory-owning buddy. No ride needed.

    Ha! OK, will do. I've gone medium-low-carb on the "bagel eggels", I use flour tortillas instead of bagels.

    Two Lucky Fish (+1) will be there. The "+1" in electrical tape is still on the boat. I couldn't bring myself to clean it off! And I NEVER DID figure out who put it there. :)

    I'm planning to be at the show on Sunday (Jan 25) for sure. I'll ask Julia about the Snoqualmie Falls Brewery event on Friday (Jan 31) as well; I'd like to hear about Sam's circumnavigation of Vancouver Island. The Inn At The Market potluck (Feb 1) might be a budget-friendlier option for...

    I have this, and I've never had a watery fuel problem. On the other hand, maybe I've just been lucky! Quick question: How do you know when you've got WATER and not FUEL in the see-through bowl? Thanks!

    Thanks Barry and Patty for putting on a great event. The crew of Two Lucky Fish—all FIVE of us—had a great time! So...um...who put the "+1" on our boat in electrical tape? I was sure it was Barry, but apparently not. Anybody care to 'fess up?? And speaking of pranks...We lost the wheel post...

    No room at the inn! Wow, that's a LOT of C-Brats! The crew of Two Lucky Fish are seated across the street at the Cask and Schooner. Hey, the boat motor runs real quiet without that #*$&%£ exhaust leak!

    Johnson (Suzuki) 90: Another midsection corrosion failure

    Took the boat out yesterday, and HEY the pinging/rattling/knocking sound is gone! Will my J-B Weld HighTemp patch hold up? I seriously doubt it. No matter, I've got the new Oil Pan component arriving today. Got a freshwater-only used one off eBay for $200! I'll wait until after Friday Harbor...

    Oh good, the girls will have somebody to play with. Plus your girls will get to play with tiny Tristan.

    I can bring one, Harvey. Yours is what they're calling "C Classic" now, right? http://www.raymarine.com/view/?id=3751

    Battery Question

    Let me correct/clarify this. SAME price, not cheaper, but extra year of warranty coverage. That's worth spending $5 on a pair of zinc post adapters.

    Johnson (Suzuki) 90: Another midsection corrosion failure

    Corrosion is specifically NOT covered under warranty. "Dissimilar metals" could legitimately be called a design or manufacturing flaw, and apparently has been on the issue with the sensor port in the engine holder; the fact that they changed the design suggests that there was something...you...
