Hey all, been sick and had to replace an injector pump in Brunswick Ga. so time has won. We are now in Fort Meyers trying to plan the crossing and was hoping someone was close doing the same thing. We made it through the Okeechobee from St Lucie To Franklins lock in 14 hrs with an average of 9.9...

The rack is free and they have full travel, just not by the throttle. The injector gods said it just happened, probably age and abrupt manipulation.

aha moment The rack inside the injector pump is the culprit. After hours of downstream verification the rack is the last thing in the line. After that is injectors which are ok. Wishing all a very happy turkey day and a full belly. Now finding a mechanic that can do it. I'll post the outcome...

About time Departed Little River at 8:05 and threw the dock line in Georgetown at 4:00. Not bad for a 50 year old girl in her prom dress. The ditch is not bad up here not much commercial traffic. A lot of boats going south and with another northerner on its way down will push even more. The...
