OK, I have once again been lax about updates. Spring Break turned out to be great fun and I got a few things done.
To review my list:
Dickinson P9000 propane heater - No progress connecting it but it is installed.
Stern rail propane tank mount - Done and turned out nice (I'll post pictures)
New propane system for the heater - Have all the connections and I just got the new 40' propane hose. Now I just need to build a teak box to protect the fittings and run the hose.
Whole boat water filter - Done, but the pump is having a hard time pushing water through the 5 micron filter. Might need to go to a larger size.
V-berth cabinet doors
New mahogany curtains rods and SS brackets - Done except for 2 brackets. This came out really nice and I plan to add at least 3 more curtains to ports.
New curtains - Done. They look great on the 3 ports I have finished.
Teak dagger mount - Done, a nice homey touch.
Framed picture in v-berth - Done, "Sailing on the Solent" looks nice and covers some rough sports on the bulkhead..
Raritan PH - II- Done, except for the troublesome fresh water leak.. I hate plumbing...
Also managed to get in 2 days of sailing and 2 nights on the boat...
All in all, I would say a "B-" week.
Cheers,
Rick
