What a week it was

Well good morning to all.

This past week has been a real busy week for me. I am running out of time to get everything done that I have wanted to be done with. Shirley will be here this weekend and I want it to be ready and set up like a house. That is how I want it.

This past week I rebuilt the galley for the third time and now it is set up the way it should be. We got a toaster oven to use for an oven and a two burner cook top that uses propane. Buy doing this it saved me over a hundred dollars and I was able to buy other things that was needed. I also got one gusset made and installed in it's place , three to go now. Besides that we unbolted the swim platform and sealed all the bolt holes with 3M 5200 adhesive and what a messy job it was. That will take a load off some of the small wire that was used.

I also got the power supply ran up to the fly bridge and got it all hooked up. This week I hope I can get the new power cables installed  to the battery banks. There is still some wiring that needs to be done too.

The last thing that I got done this past week was to put the drains from the kitchen sink, lavatory, and shower in hard pipe to the gray water holding tank. The age of this boat did not require holding tanks in it's day. Today you just can not dump it anywhere so therefore I installed an holding tank with a pump just in case I could make it to a dump station.

The last thing that I got done was to paint the boot strip and that finished up my week on the Carrie Michelle.

Until next posting have a great day,
Harold
