The weather is not cooperating for outside the boat work. Condensation on the tarp means it's basically raining INSIDE the tent. Moving work to the inside of the boat for now...which is needed desperately! I've been neglecting the inside too long. Time for some clean-up before deciding what project to work on. Wiring? Fuel lines and mounting new tank? So much to do...
Rudder! (And Swab)
Sitting looking all that needs to be done... House flooded a while back. This triggered a lot more remodel than just the damaged floor.. Boat work has been put on hold for house work.
Work on the propane locker/lazerett/cockpit seat is progressing...
Progress... #formosa41 #sailboat #boatlife #chihuahua #restoration #refit
Working on light placement. I think four will be plenty over the dinette table. So much brighter than the old single one, and being LEDs, half the amps!
Hmm, works hard for no pay....what's this Tom doing for the next few months? I'll pay him double! Lol
Deck off 😢
Special thanks to Tom Shaw for all his unpaid hard work!
Just a bit of corrosion in there. Time to rebuild or replace the starter.
Once all the panels were trimmed to fit, i held them all together with some fence boards so i could remove the wall in one piece. Now I need to fiberglass the inside of the wall before reinstalling it permanently.
Working on rebuilding the cockpit seat and propane locker.
