Thruster line blown
Blew another line. By the time you realize you have blown a line you dump a lot of ATF fluid. Pulled the starboard thruster off and the fitting where it attaches to the thruster was so badly corroded it was disconnected. Poor quality parts by the manufacturer. Was able to remove it by myself but don't have enough hands to reinstall without getting water in the lines. Rob down for poker run and will put back on then.

HaHa well maybe that will be enough reason to get off the pool and participate in a normal life........look forward to seeing him. Oh, by the way I can help with the thruster if he backs out and doesn't show......

Thanks for the offer. Maybe you can come by and supervise. We are getting good at this. This will be the 3rd time we have done this!
