Re: Mike's 53 Caribbean

I had traded the caribbean for the clipper from my brother in law for two weeks while I had the bi-annual inspection done at TÜV, and also did my Service and checkup. Clipper is good to go, now back to the caribbean. On the way home yesterday we got caught in a torrential downpour, but the caribbean actually stayed pretty dry inside. The family was very quiet and nervous with Rain beating on the soft top, but luckily we were only 20 min from home, and the car and wipers ran fine.
I am trying to get the antenna working. It was frozen. I already read the Service counselor, and checked big kevs description from when he did his clipper years ago.
I got it apart and cleaned. Motor was Stuck and rusted.....I loosened it up, and hope I can get it working again.
Here is a before pic.
