Finally! I am the proud owner of a hole on the water I can throw my money into! Although I’m a few thousand miles away in Afghanistan, I can now start working on some of the boat projects:
Here’s the little list so far:
| Allow easy access to the cockpit scupper drain valve |
| Boat Graphics |
| Bottom Job |
| Confirm condition/integrity of forward fuel tank prior to returning to service |
| Confirm oven burner function, service as required |
| Evaluate shaft strut, reinforce as required |
| Install GFCI outlets as required |
| Inventory all hose clamps and replace/supplement as required |
| Repair electric bilge pump |
| Repair generator fuel leak |
| Replace stuffing box hose clamps-Service dripless stuffing box |
| Secure leak in water pump under forward head sink |
| Secure starter cable from chafe |
| Solar |
| Tune and secure lifelines |
| Upgrade battery installation |
| Upgrade/replace anchor chain |
| Wind |
| Cushions |
| Deck re-caulking |
| Dinghy |
| Shrink Wrapping |
Some of the stuff I will be doing for myself, but some f the work I will farm out. The criteria I am basing the decisions are the fact that I want to sail the boat while I’m on leave in May.
