Cummins on the port side wouldn't engage the starter. Cummins sent a new (re-man.) starter motor over. Installed by dealer, didn't look the same; checked with Cummins three times and they said it's changed. Turned out to be the wrong starter even though their computer said it was correct. So, another day laid up until the correct starter was located and installed. Started up great and died a minute later. Racors were plugged (just changed them 10 weeks ago). So, changed out the Racors and primaries to be safe.

End of repairs? No, water connection regulator failed. Replaced it but in doing so somehow I broke a flange supporting a bilge blower.

Oh well. Typical boating weekend. Weather was great and the boat performed well after that. (B.O.A.T. "Bring out another thousand")
