I am told those small antenna sticks are as good or better than the big round antenna

Greetings,
Mr. A. "You do more in couple hrs. than most could accomplish in a day..." Where were you in geography class? Don't you realise Australia is in the SOUTHERN hemisphere and as a result, 12 hours is actually 21 hours? Similarly, 15 hours is in reality 51 hours. Sheesh. Get with the program man! (Looking good Mr. H.)

You are on the down hill coast. Dont muck it up now.
You will always find things that could have been better or things to do. Unless it leaks, you can wait for the off-boating season, haul the boat and work on it.
The first season is always a shake-down cruise.

It looks as if you have full standing headroom below. If so, that is so nice. Not many boats have standing headroom going forward. Ok, not many boats I have been aboard had full standing headroom forward.

Yeah mate full standing headroom throughout except in the engine room
You may not be able to stand up down there, but from the pics I've seen, there's plenty of room to take a nap on either side of the engine.

This afternoon at the boat I started the installation of the 65mm pvc pipe that will house the wiring for the solar panels and any other wires from the roof into the superstructure itself. Looks a bit dodgy atm but I am making a shroud to go over the elbow and the flexible conduit that will fix to the end cap. I installed the raydome and wired it all up. For some reason it wouldn’t work on the separate radar screen so I’ve hooked it up to the Multifunctional GPS unit. It’s a bit neater and less screens and it’s colour so it worked out in the end. I still need to water proof the raydome mounting plate and the wiring port but ran out of time so will do that when I get time off next swing. In the meantime my mate Mike has the keys to the boat and will be doing some internal painting while I’m away at work to help with the progress.
That’s were my eyes come in to play ;-)

Hey Matt. Check this out! Your old thread about your boat rebuild. Some of the pics are still there.

LOL, I reviewed those early pictures again. Realize the parts he used in the 'rebuild' were few and far between. Now you know how God felt, starting out with Adam's rib. LOL
First working day at the boat in ages. I ended up sanding and filling the wardrobe and walkway trim. I then ran around doing some no more gaps then went outside to leave that all dry up ready to paint on Monday and set up a mini spray booth so I can start spraying the doors on Monday also.
Had to chuckle on that;
Haha I know right haha
