The 50 foot Ocean Alexander, Insequent, now has two new John Deere engines installed at Port Townsend Shipwrights Co-op.  They are 180 horsepower each.  Co-Project Managers Chris Brignoli and Todd Lee are doing a complete rewire and systems refit on Insequent.  There will be new fuel tanks, new water tank, heat system, and new propane system added.  As well, a davit crane to lift the dinghy, a flybridge hard top, and a 2000 watt solar aray will all be installed.

Here is an image of the new fuel polishing and filtration system.  The layout design, organization, and labeling make the system accessible to the boat owner.  When cruising on the open ocean, this will allow the owner Brian Gibson to monitor the marine systems properly.
