About the best advice I can give you is... don't EVER order from fisheries supply. So here's what happened. I decided to change the impeller on the raw water pump before we left. I found that the water pump was leaking and in pretty bad shape. Apparently had been for some time. Since I knew it would take too long for West Marine to get a special order in, I decided to call around first thing Monday morning and find someone with it in stock. Fisheries supply had one, i called and verified that with 3-day air i would be able to get it by Friday.... no prob it will be here Thursday they said... it will ship out today. Monday goes by, no shipping notice. I call Tuesday morning and am told they will call me back with a tracking number. Tuesday goes by, no phone call, so I call back before they close Tuesday and was assured that due to it no shipping Monday it would go out 2-day air, no extra charge... GREAT. I get the tracking number Tuesday night and not only did it not ship 2-day.... it didn't ship 3-day, they shipped it GROUND!!! We are leaving on the 27th, the water pump arrives the 25th, that's cutting it way to close. If it's the wrong one we're screwed and delaying our vacation. I have absolutely no faith that it's even the right one since Fisheries Supply can't seem to get even the simplest task of the shipping right.

Anyhow, the floors are done, put the first coat of varnish on today. The cockpit should be finished on Friday, so the list is getting shorter.
