Hi,
I am now the proud owner of a Merry Fisher 805. Being a careful owner I got a marine engineer to replace the volvo seal on the stern gland -this was done incorrectly and I nearly sank. Obviously he is now going to fix the seal but should I insist on anything else being done? Water came in and filled the stern lazerette and then into the main compartment and up to but not over the engine. Full service? New exhaust? Any suggestions would be very welcome.
