Hi All,
I own a Sessa 34 which is based in Mallorca and I've had since new (2003)
The boat has two Volvo Penta KAD43 Z Drive engines which have been serviced every year in accordance with the Volvo Schedule and the books stamped.
The Engines have done just under 500 hours each.
The yard in Mallorca is an authorised dealer and supplied the boat from new. They have done an excellent job every year and the engines have never missed a beat in the last 8 years.
QUESTION
The company is telling me that both engines require a full inspection and major service. They are saying they must remove both engines and take them apart to replace many parts.
The cost is around 7,000 Euros
Do I need this work done or are they just looking for work?
Please advise as I really unsure what to do??
