So, you can just replace directly with no other issues? Thanks, looks good.

As per real estate broker friends in Florida, they are expecting foreclosures and short sales in '24 on a large scale. People who took mortgages at high interest rates are feeling the pinch. The cycle repeats once again. Keep your powder dry and be ready to jump in when it happens. There will be...

Yes, that back seat can be a real pain and it's heavy as can be. Thinking of converting to lightweight camping chairs as an alternative and leaving it folded up.

It's coming..agreed.

Cape May is definitely more upscale yet retains it's charm and beauty. Take the trolley tour of historic homes, climb to the top of the lighthouse, visit Sunset Point for the sunset ceremony, rent bikes and do your own tour of the town, head over to the Ebbitt Room bar at the Virginia Hotel for...

Wow...sharp and clean boat, best of luck and welcome to the club. This is a great resource here.

Mitch, Very sage advice from a wise man. I am ordering a new one today. It looks to be a fairly simple install. Thanks my friend and to all who replied..

Thanks very much that's it! Now to see if there any options to seal the crack. Marinetex or JB weld maybe?

More photos. Trying to find what this apparatus is called. It is located below the alternator and is where the leak sprung from. You can see the screw with black marine silicone that I inserted as a temporary fix. Maybe this entire apparatus is what I would have to replace? This is a view...
