Stamatis, the mechanic is here


The gear shift is working again. Last fall, I only had forward gear, which made it tricky to move the boat to the boatyard. Actually it was another mechanic who fixed it without my knowledge. Takis, the boat yard owner had Vasilis fix it. 
And then Stamatis came and confirmed that it was working. He then took out three engine anodes that I couldn't free up. They definitely needed replacing although after 3 years they were still functional. Also, he changed the alternator belt. Luckily, I had a new one on hand. 
And finally, he took out six layers of prop shaft packing and replaced it with three new ones. All this took nearly three hours! Eidos' engine is now good to go!
