Boat repairs continue
Today I heard from the company doing the refit/repair. They are saying they need another week to finish the work.
Here is a rundown of what needs completed:
- Install wind instrument transducer on top of mast and anchor light
- Finish hooking up new electronics
- Load test the inverter
- Fill windlass with heavy oil and test (it has a small leak so can’t be kept filled until repaired)
- Install in aft lazarette with “T’s, shut off the valves to the old autopilot
- Put inside of boat back together . (The floor was torn up to replace the engine.)
- Connect instruments at helm.
- Put oil and coolant in engine, fuel in tank(s)
- Clean up inside and out
- find reverse problem (water heater?)
- Hook up CO2/gas alarm to DC power
- Try to get water tank level gauge working
- Install Deck light
- Load test wind generator
- Make new stringers for salon floor
- Install charger for engine battery
It’s hard not to be frustrated with all these delays, but the chores on this list are important and need done. Apparently Someone felt I needed to work on my patience…
