Odd jobs

The main priority this week was to complete the enclosure for the rear of the chart plotter, I started by completing the varnishing of the timber trim and then fitting it. I decided to use timber trim for the outboard end of the enclosure and the first part has been completed and fitted, over the weekend I shall cut the timber for the lower section this will have to be cut from a larger section to give the required width.

Enclosure almost complete

While I was waiting for the varnish to dry I made and fitted the fairing piece to the starboard aft corner of the coach roof in the same manner as the two forward corners.

Fairing piece fitted

Reading lamp replaced

To finish off the week I got the hoover out and gave the saloon a good clean, the work that I had been doing entailed cutting and shaping timber and laminate and drilling for fixings which seems to have left behind a fair amount of detritus which gets everywhere especially the dust its all looking much cleaner now.

As most of the major projects have been completed the work rate has reduced as I settle into what is mostly detailing and finishing off the aim is to have the majority of this work completed over the coming winter although of course I have had the boat long enough now for various maintenance jobs to crop up from time to time.
