make sure he installs grease zerts, you know, for regular maintenance. but use only Mercruiser brand marine grease, it makes all the difference! Good luck Barb, I'm sure all will be fine. keep us posted. you'll need a good shoulder for all the torque that Red's motor sends back thru the steering. best wishes for a speedy recovery, whatever meet you decide to attend this year I'm comin' for ya, and you better be ready to put the hammer down!
Barb's doctor has moved up her surgery, she is going to have a complete shoulder replacement, she's headed out to the hospital now, her surgery is scheduled for 1:45 today. She was a little concerned about the parts the doctor will be using, I assured her he will be using OEM Mercruiser parts, marine grease, and if he gets in there and see's that she needs more parts to give me a call. Let's all pray for her speedy recovery.
