Turbo 36 not performing

[TurboRoss]

Thank you both for the advice & pictures . I’m going armed with some floor lifting tools this afternoon

The port sender unit seems to read at the gauge helm position , the starboard side gauge is stuck at 1/4.

As we are unsure on the fuel quantity in that tank , I’m hoping that when we do find out it will explain the slight list to starboard that it has . The fuel crossover doesn’t balance it out either .

Thanks again for helping

As others have said, the first thing to do is get the bottom and props scrubbed. I'd also have a look at the fuel, preferably via the sender and see if it looks clean. At worst it will have some diesel bug, at best it might be a bit stale. Also, make sure you carry some spare fuel filter on board and make sure you know how to change them.

Will do thank you

Hi There

So here are the props ! Before and after shot .....

It took some serious cleaning

Nicely done! Those props look in really good condition too
Might be worth doing a quick check on those rope cutters whilst you're out:

I'd be amazed if they're not absolutely fine, but probably worth a glance to make sure the spacings etc are good.
They're the same cutters I have, very expensive to replace if you get a shopping trolley wrapped around your shaft (don't ask me how I know!!) but from the research I did, they seem to be very highly regarded and well worth having.

Thanks , ill take that with me tomorrow and check that
