Two new coats of bottom paint
With spring finally taking a firm grip on us, it seems we're getting close to launch day the first week of May. I went back over all the projects done this fall/winter and came up with the following:
5 of 9 new ports installed
New refrigeration & settee area
Install solar panel
New batteries
New fuses and electrical wiring for all major components
Prep bottom for launching (new zinc, prop cleaned and 2 coats of anti-fouling paint)
As well as various smaller projects (rebed some chainplates, run new water hose, new cockpit drain hose, install more LED lights, install radio/battery monitor/vhf/solar instruments. Some things I had done by the pros, like new furling system and sail, new dodger, and rebuilt starter. Also ordered a CPT autopilot, which I can install. All in all, lots done but always more to do. Ready for the warm weather and bay sailing.
