We needed to take the Spectra Ventura Watermaker 200T Deluxe pre-filter housing up to a vice so we tagged along the BetaMarine 38 hp motor zincs we needed to cut. Off we went to the Paradise Village Marina aquatic rental shack on "A" dock. We know behind the shed there is a nice work bench with a vice! November 2020 - We are currently in Paradise Village Marina in Banderas
Bay Mexico (by Puerto Vallarta)
We tried using our Japanese saw "SUIZAN Japanese Ryoba Pull Saw" but the saw is beat up with a lot of broken teeth otherwise it might have worked fine, So we used the hack saw instead. By the way, as marina members, we get free kayak use from the hotel. Also free paddle boards and boggy boards at the beach!
As usual, we soaked the bronze ends for the zincs in Muriatic Acid to clean out the old zinc.
Ooh, aah - a brand new, full-sized engine zinc!
We marked it to the length that is just right for our engine then cut away the excess. This is so much easier when using a vice!
