 This broken exhaust elbow corroded through due to hot exhaust gases and boiling/steam salt water.

 Seen on the hard at Jolly Harbour in Antigua, the name certainly doesn't evoke that feeling of calm seas and pleasant times :)

I thought that preparing the generator would be a quick job, just replacing the impeller and firing her up. Nope, the generator wouldn't start and, thanks to a camera held under and inside the engine, I see that the system has a puncture. That doesn't explain why the generator won't start but needs to repaired before the generator can be used. First impression (and the repair) are
documented here.
