Hello from Willow B... Proud Mary is the exact layout as Willow B. She is the perfect (for us) layout for the Great Loop. We brought Willow B home from Boston to the Ohio River MM363 via Erie Canal & Great Lakes. Our only issue we encountered was a leaking Injection Fuel Pump. I found stripped threads while rebuilding the pump. I made temporary repairs with the limited tools & supplies I had on hand. The repair got Willow B home. What a great adventure it was! Today we begin addressing the deferred maintenance issues!!!
Willow B is loaded with accessories & electronics, but NO bow thruster. You will appreciate that BIG TIME.
Once you get the issues addressed, Proud Mary will serve you and your crew well. I look forward to following your refit. Good luck and enjoy the experience.
