After a long time in the making it was now the time to fit the new engine into the Morgan Giles 30. With the aid of the local boatyard and their crane and its driver we were able to put the new engine in the boat.
The owner of the boat had made sure that there was going to be a good amount of room round the engine to work on all the engine services items when at sea and make sure that engine bay was fit for purpose.
It is now up to us to get all the parts connected up so that when it comes time to launch her it will be a turn key moment.
After a bit of careful measuring we were able to ensure that the forward panel will fit as it was originally intended to be fitted. This was because the original new engine was going to be one size down from this final engine. In the end it fitted well into position.
