spare parts

[Epilogue]

Hi folks. Just bought 2011 R21EC which I am shipping to Grand Cayman to use during the winter months (I live there in the winter!) and since sometimes spare parts are difficult to obtain, I thought i would put aboard a few essentials before I ship her down. Any suggestions? I am thinking mainly engine, but anything else your experience suggests as "breakable" and would be helpful to have on board would be welcome. Gunkholing and diving would be our main use... thanks for your thoughts. Bill

On the home page to Tugnuts, on the left side is a link for "3ym 30 parts form.xls". I would recommend those parts as a starter. Then get the appropriate engine oil, gear oil, and coolant.

I'd also bring a spare prop, as well as multiple spares of the fuel filters (in the tropics, sometimes you get the good fuel, and sometimes you get the goo fuel) and zincs (especially external zincs like prop and rudder - between the salinity, water temps, and a 'hot' poorly grounded marina, you can blow through zincs very quickly).
