Failed Shaft Log Replaced

Mabel, a pretty Grand Banks 32, is at Gig Harbor Marina & Boatyard for some wintertime service and repair. She is getting a replacement, a renewal and a refoaming by the crew at the boatyard.

Mabel is on the hard to have her failed shaft log replaced and for an upgrade on her DC wiring. The boatyard crew is renewing the cutlass bearings on the Grand Banks and installing a new bearing in her shaft log. The crew also evacuated water from the boat’s keel cavity and then refoamed her keel.

Grand Banks at Boatyard to Have Failed Shaft Log Replaced

Mabel’s Gig Harbor owners have had the Grand Banks for about 25 years and are regular customers at Gig Harbor Marina & Boatyard, said boatyard Service Manager Chris Hawke.

With her wintertime renewal — including a fresh coat of bottom paint — Mabel is getting set for warm weather cruising.
