Where I left off I had just cut and dry fit the shower wall that sits at the inboard side of the hull and covers over the black holding tank. I have allowed for some plumbing to go behind the black tank, the gas line from the bottle well that sits in the duckboard and […]
Well what can I say in my defence? Not much really, I have been getting the boat work done but not logging it as often as I should be and I would be surprised if most readers are bothering with me anymore. But let me assure you readers that are hanging in there with me, […]
I have made some excellent progress this past week or so. I needed to, I am going away for Easter. I am just waiting on a plumber to fit my kitchen gas pipe now before I can finally glass the black tank in behind the bathroom side wall and then the side wall on. So […]
The next job off the list was to finally glass the grey water holding tank into the boat, behind the port daggerboard case. The tank is already made, all that was left to finish it was to fit a final panel which includes the inlet point and a breather, the outlet at the bottom is […]
The shower is almost finished, the base is in, the black tank is ready to glass in so next will be a panel made to cover over it and then the shower back with doorway through to the laundry can go in. I have all of my through hulls on the port hull in the […]
I forgot to test the Pureseal plates at the start of Autumn so I did it mid month and am reporting it here. I continue to be impressed by this stuff but cannot get any information or an answer from the makers. 3 years and 3 months and it is still working. It is starting […]
I really have to throw some serious hours at this build soon as I am falling further and further behind schedule. I have only managed about 100 hours in 3 months when I really ought to be getting 100 hours a month if this boat is to be finished in 2011. I have already conceded […]
With the plumbing under the shower base and the web for supporting the base glued and glassed in, glassing the shower base in was a fairly simple task, except that first the drain panel had to be glued and glassed in first. Then the duflex shower base went in under the aft edge of the […]
The bathroom in the Port hull sits behind the wall that makes the stairwell and under the galley. In that room will be a vanity basin and toilet (and an escape hatch) and through the main bulkhead (where most other boats of this design have the bathroom and shower) will be the shower with a […]
Sorry for that rather long break in transmission. We can now resume normal programming. I have been quite busy working on the boat but too busy (or lazy) to write and upload the blog. I do apologise. Now I said I have been busy, that’s also not exactly true. Each year, at the start usually […]
