Now for the mast...
02 April 2010 | Stuart, Florida
Georgeous day for workingon the boat!
Progressing nicely on the project. After the splash, installed the bimini and solar panels which are putting out as musch as 17+ volts. I had the fridge guy come out and install new brushes in the motor, runs like a champ. I still must replace the water pump that supplies cooling to the motor and compressor. I have been at it non-stop on the mast though, only occasionally going to the boat at the slip. The new electric lines and halyards are in and I am in the middle of priming and painting it with emphasis on corrosion prevention. Today I went down to Florida Rigging and picked up the new standing rigging. Tomorrow the final paint and install of some of the fittings. I hope to have the mast stepped on Wednesday. I'm pn schedule so it looks like it will happen (finally). Pics to follow...
