Well I guess its time I put my input into this blog. Sorry no pictures with this post. Karen put some up yesterday and we don't have all that much to show anyway.
We got down here on Wednesday the 10th. As expected the engines were not fully installed. Looks like we won't be leaving Taylors Island until Oct 1. If we are lucky. For now that doesn't matter. We have a lot of work to do on the boat. When they put the new engines in they removed most the wiring I had for the house batteries. That means that I will have to rewire the house batteries. That will be a job because of all the connections I have to make. There is the solar, the shore charger, the alternators plus about 5 more systems that have to be hooked up.
The good news is we have the bottom painted. Next week we will paint the top and I should be able to start working on the electric system.
I now know why God set up the seven day week with one day off. My body hurts. I need a day off. Just climbing on the boat 50 times a day has made it hard to walk. So we are taking today off and going to a sports bar to watch the football games.
I should have some more to posts next week. So bye for now.
