Re: Machine shop in Tahiti

There is plenty of support there. You can buy all the replacement seals and bearings at Tahiti Roulement. And plenty of folks who can help. Scott, have the number of your Russian engineer?

Hello Everybody,

Can anyone recommend a good machine shop in Pape'ete for rebuilding the outhaul gearbox? Has anyone had this done in Tahiti before? The bronze worm gear has likely been sheared by the steel worm. The unit is a Leroy Somer.

Asking for a friend who is currently on passage from NZ to Tahiti on a Super Maramu.

Cheers,
