Concur. Sam had the engine serviced as I had advised him during his cruise in Fiji. There is no method, other than someone remembering, to trigger an engine/saildrive service.

I propose we add this important information to the Skipper's handover notes, so that incoming skippers are advised how many engine hours are remaining until a service is due (every 250 hours as agreed by CORC committee previously). This would negate the need for a GITHUB Issue and put the onus on the Skippers. ie: if there are less than 50 hours remaining, someone SHOULD be asking when the engine service is booked for.

My thoughts...

It's a good idea that we put the onus back onto the current skipper to organise an engine service

I did not mean to put the onus to arrange the service, but to be aware that a service is due and to speak to someone (Maintenance Manager most likely) to arrange with a recognised supplier to have the service done - obviously in concert with the skipper at the time - who may have to return to port a day ahead of schedule to have the service done. Unfortunately, it would be difficult to predict when a day could be made available for such maintenance when the vessel is being used through the booking system (especially when out of SYdney area).
