Wow, what an effort it has been climbing all over the boat with ripped
ligaments in my ankle!!!
The results are starting to come together nice though!! (And the fistfuls
of
painkillers are helping heaps!!)
The new Targa Bar is now up and installed.
The 40 watt solar panel has been replaced and the new 130 watt panel is
now
installed and thumping out some serious charge!!
I was impressed this morning. At 7:30am, with the sun behind the clouds,
and
the panel in the shade of a tree, the panel was still putting out 1.5
amps.
It should put out 8 amps in full sun. I just checked it again at 10am and
it
was putting out a little over 7 amps.
Mid-day it was 7.8 amps.
The GPS and VHF antenna's have now been installed onto the Targa.
The new Dinghy tow is halfway complete, using an old spare spin****r pole
cut in half!!
Inside the cabin the new electric toilet is in.
The new 15 inch LCD flat screen TV is in and hooked up to the DVD player.
The new MP3/CD/AM/FM Stereo is installed with 4 new speakers (2 in the
cabin
and 2 in the cockpit)
The new LED interior light is now installed.
STILL TO DO!!
Finish the Dinghy Tow system.
Install a Whale Watching seat on the bow for Amber.
Install a new fridge.
replace the furling headsail sheet.
Give the boat a good spring clean!!
