SV Sialia – Fall Projects (update)

Productive boat day, making progress on three projects I want to finish before next season.

1. Ran wire from the dry bilge pump contraption back to the DC panel, and installed switch for 1.2 gph diaphram pump

2. Ran main wire to power fan circuits to area under galley sink that will house a homemade switch panel. Ran 4 branch wires to areas where small fans will move air below the cabin sole and in various compartments

3. Began mapping existing water systems. The existing is a rats nest, consisting of a make-shift pressure system, and old hose runs that go nowhere. A couple of old through hulls (water intake) had hoses attached that terminate at cuts. Was one curious turn of a valve or two from setting the boat at the bottom of the harbour last season! The plan is to make the water system sensible

Warm enough on board to be in short sleeves!
