    Seeing your crockpot, well at least that’s what we call them in the states. I love cooking with those things. Im a single Dad, after a long hard day, I pickup my son from school, and being able to come home to a cooked meal, that smells incredible, it’s amazing. Good luck on the boat, definitely looks like a good bit of work, but those are the projects I appreciate the most. The feeling you get when you achieve your goal, it’s truly priceless. Plus the payoff, and being able to enjoy your work. Ignore the nay sayers, pay more attention to the ppl rooting you on.

    Big changes. The water in the old tanks looked surprisingly clean. The bilge under the engine was amazing. The boat is going to float 10 cm higher after removing all the crud. When I pulled the old engine from my former wooden cruiser there was about 10-15 cm thick congealed grease/oil under where the engine was. It was a big, messy, job to get rid of it all. Your cockpit drain plumbing reminds me of the raw water intake plumbing on my old boat. I counted 17 fittings on one thru-hull. A plumbers nightmare. Keep up the good work.

    I am very jealous of what will eventually be the work shop in the engine room. That would be great to have. I love visiting the bins at my marina and have found many treasures there although my wife often feels shame when I do. It will be nice to get rid of all the unnecessary through hulls. I have a little catamaran and after my last haul out went to none in the port hull and would like to go from 3 to 1 in the starboard hull next time she comes out of the water. Keep up the good work despite the hot days.

    Hello Mike! That's one of the things we love the most about this boat... The space in the engine room! We are never ashamed of looking through the bins. Many people here do it and it's surprising what some people throw away... This boat has so many through hulls it's unbelievable 🤦🏻‍♀️ We are getting rid of so many of them... So we can totally understand why you are trying to reduce the number of through hulls as well.
