This Blog is a Sailing Journal for the Sailboat Moon Dancer II, a Canadian registered vessel. Moon Dancer II is an Endeavour 37 Ketch Rig. The Journal is for Family and Friends to be able to see where we go and follow the work on the boat as she is re-fit.

Major Project for 2021 - Perkins 4.108 Engine Rebuild
The big project for this year will be the rebuilding of the ol' Perkins 4.108. Thought it just may have needed a gasket kit and the High Pressure pump rebuilt or replaced... Turned out that when the engine was disassembled that it showed much more wear than an engine with only 1400hrs on it. Going to be a complete overhaul... So from being removed from the boat as an engine, she's a bucket of bolts and parts now...more later as she starts to take shape again...
