Winter boat projects continue

Back again for another fun-filled Saturday on the boat.

Some of the wiring that needed to be completed turned out to be difficult to do properly but this weekend, we applied ourselves and did it all correctly.

The switch for the new lights in the head needed to be hidden and that took at least 45 minutes and our entire vocabulary of foul language to get the switch mounted and the wires routed. But once done, it worked out as planned and unless you know where the switch is, you will never see it.  (For our good friends, just slide the right vanity door open and the switch is on your right. The light will be bright enough for you to easily read a chapter or two of your favorite book while sitting on the head.)


We also fixed some of the wiring for the LED lights in the galley and we were happy to see that everything works.

Our effort to fill in the missing pieces of our starboard triangle will take a little more work. Let's just leave it at that, okay?

Finally, we shot some video and proved to ourselves that Bill will never get a job as a CNN anchor. He even forgot to take off his head-mounted light. We don't use a Teleprompter, which is pretty obvious. Still, it's fun to do and look at later.
