The Greatest Mechanic I Know Makes Simone Roar Again | Rebuilding My Diesel Engine Africa
Bonjour Winded Voyagers
We're making slow and calculated progress. And this video will show it.
The greatest diesel mechanic I have known throughout my travels is Arona. Here at the Dakar Yacht Club or CVD. He's been caring for my dear Simone, the Perkins 4108 for many years.
Not only is Arona caring for Simone, his wife just delivered a son. So he was back and forth between our Simone and his expecting wife. In the end once again, Arona managed.
Now Simone is on his bench and ready to roar back to life again. For me it was a first to see a big old bundle of naked iron muscle come to life out in plain view. The best part was seeing Arona's reaction.
Big hugs from Dakar.

I caught hep A swimming in the sea off of Tripoli Libya, I'd do it again if I had the chance but my only advice is to be careful not to ingest the water.
That doesn't sound good. If I remember right, I got vaccinated for HepB in the Canaries. I'm not swimming in that water much. Only when thr currents are right.
