Last weekend my Sealine T46 was being skippered to Mallorca from Sant Carles and 30nm out had a major engine failure resulting in the boat returning to Sant Carles on one engine. I have quickly got out of my depth technically but this is my understanding of the diagnosis-the port engine(TAMD73p 600 hours) overheated and seized due to an injector failure caused by dirty fuel-the local Volvo dealer that looks after the boat will not give me an exact figure but their guestimate to remove repair end refit is 17000 euros plus Iva so over 20k. This is assuming the damage is to one cylinder so can go up from there. Summer holiday plans are not looking good and it's a brutal repair cost so I am clutching at straws and anything else!
I know the info is a bit sketchy- I want to check I'm in the ball park. Really appreciate any advice and suggestions.
