Cleaning up the openings for new bronze thru-hull drains.

The neighbor at the marina noted that I replaced all the intake thru-hulls with bronze fittings. He recommended that I replace two nylon drains on the port side. One is for the second bilge pump and the other is for gray water. I was dreading the removal. To loosen the mushroom head I slid a...

I was trying to determine the average reduction in decibels for the product. Nothing was posted and since the 1 inch thick was only about $20 more than 1/2” thick I went with the 1 inch. It does have the rubbery material within the foam.

I installed two 1 inch thick sound deadening insulation panels against the front bulkhead before I start attaching strainers and filters.

The rim joists and cross brace boards are installed along with aluminum angle braces.

Thank you

I installed a 3/4 inch oak board across the two plywood panels and another 3/4 inch thick center line board. The original plan had the engine and HVAC intake strainers plus the fuel/water separator mounted on the oak boards. They are necessary otherwise the fastening screws will go through the...

I went back to work on the bulkhead from hell. Everything seems to attach or pass through this section of wall.

I finally got around to installing the stair treads and ladder steps. We varnished them which looks great but makes them super slick. So we had to add safety grip pads to prevent accidents. Sometimes practicality overrides aesthetics.

I installed the bottom step but have more bulkhead boards to fasten before the new top step goes into place.

I made some replacement steps for the stateroom stairs out of mahogany. The teak was way too expensive.

Thank you. We watch a lot of YouTube videos for ideas and training ��

Engine water intake HVAC intake Waste water thru-hull on left and toilet water intake on right

Today was thru-hull installation day. I installed the grated engine intake, the grated HVAC intake, the toilet intake and the waste water thru-hull even though it will probably never be used.

After hours of frustration and unintentional yoga positions I was able to install a new shower pan drain with elbow connector, clamps and drain hose.

Glued the wainscoting to the utility closet plywood. We think it looks good.

Does it include cables and remote control?

Dimensions please

I removed the rotted boards from the head and cut out two new boards. It was miserable sanding the hull down to the bilge prepping for fiberglass and epoxy.

I cut out and painted the supports for the HVAC that will go in the utility closet.

Thank you for the advice. I will take heed.

I don’t know.

Before I installed the plywood panels I routed the wainscoting that will go over the plywood.

Next item was the utility room front plywood frame.

Now we are rebuilding the utility closet. This is the starboard bulkhead panel.
