I apologize to my readers about my fixation with my drive line issues, but it is severe enough to cause contemplation of throwing in the towel...were that possible!
I've tried to find a proper mechanic facility that could deal with this, first in Brest, then in Paimpol (where we lifted the boat and did some shaft alignment work)...but to no avail.
But I've now found a facility that has taken this problem on.
I was very reassured when I learned that their term for mechanic is Engineer!
The owner of the facility (Mount Batten Boathouse) Gaven got on board and agreed that my diagnosis was correct (the transmission needs repair) and that they had the expertise to rebuild it.
So, Armando, Bill and I pulled it and I walked it over the following day for a tear down.
Merv (the Engineer) found several bearings that were bad, which he was able to obtain locally and the repair is well underway as I write this.
I'm much less stressed out now as I'm dealing with real professionals that have given me every assurance that they will correct this problem....no if ands or buts.
