Engine Run

Emission where slightly dark in first couple of minutes. I could not determine blue or black smoke over the azure water. The batteries had instruments ready and started the engine first time. I'm watching out for an oil leak that appeared during the time she was idle. I think it was oil from the autopilot pump.

The engines were smooth enough in neutral, hearing the components of the cylinders running in 10,000 revs, for them to sync.

I intend on topping up the water before moving. Letting less likely failing from heat exchanger.

Thankfully, there was no need for winterising in the Med. while I was away TandEadapt has been well sustained. (Winterising would be a simple case of checking and changing filters and applying proper oil and antifreeze to the relevant components.)

Its not clear in the Video: I'm starting a new log book, keeping the old one on board. Both required for regulation and crew reference, on board commercial vessels.
