Brand New Carb

A short update on our marine saga: for two weeks Summertime has been waiting to get seaborne again. The carburettor seems to be the culprit, as fuel filter and the water separator cup are both clean of any tank debris. So, we've now bought a brand new Weber 32/36 DGV carb from Suomen kaasutinexpertti Oy, and the guys from MM-Marine will install it tomorrow. Naturally we could do it ourselves as it's bolt-compatible with the old carb, but it's better to trust professionals :)

Here's a log of our travels so far:
* 7.5.2011 ~4 km: Verkkosaari - Kulosaari - Tervasaari
* 11.5.2011 13,1 km: Tervasaari - Suomenlinna harbour - Tervasaari
* 22.5.2011 9 km: Tervasaari - Pyysaari restaurant - Tervasaari
* 5.6.2011 3.5 km: Tervasaari - Katajanokka - Tervasaari (engine problems)
* 12.6.2011 23.8 km: Tervasaari - Laajasalo - Malkasaari - Santahamina - Tervasaari
* 24.6.2011 35.3 km: Tervasaari - Lauttasaari - Iso Vasikkasaari - Tervasaari
* 28.6.2011 11.3 km: Tervasaari - Suomenlinna - Tervasaari

So about 100 km total, not bad!
