I just got off the phone with the shop. The engine overheated on the way over to drop it off for the new outdrives. To cut to the chase it looks like the head or the head gasket is shot on the port engine.
I paid $13k for this boat last fall. It surveyed just fine at the time but I did not do a mechanical survey. I am already up to almost $6k on repairs this season. Now I am looking at a failed engine with another right behind if history is a predictor.
What the heck do I do? Repower it with rebuilt engines? Pull everything useful off of it and junk it? Do the head gasket? I am really at a loss here.
