In prep for testing the fireplace & gas cooking stove, wired in and mounted combo CO / LP leak alarm. Put in 85 Series from MTI.
Installed CO / LP leak alarm
Final set of tiles is ready
The custom tiles I cut a few weeks back are now ready to go. We’ve added 3 more full size tiles to complete the set. This final set includes: beach umbrella, mermaid cat, kelp, waves, swimmer, fish, looking glass, and a tiny compass rose.
It’s a wrap!
The final piece of the puzzle was put in place today with some help from my friend Viktar: we connected and tested the fresh water pump. With that, fresh water system plumbing is complete! The original plan was perfectly executed in 3 months.
New outlet / head
My friend Viktar helped wire in a new outlet.
Ambient light in the cabin
Installed LED strips on each side of the saloon. Made them hidden close to the deck/hull join, which created great warm ambient light. Love it!
Toilet paper holder
Installed toilet paper holder into the front panel.
New set of tiles
Dolphin, wheel, pelican, ship’s bell, sand dollar, and a bikini.
Accumulation tank installed
Second to last piece of the puzzle is in. The Shurflo accumulation tank is plumbed in. Only the water pump is left now.
Installed backing board & cut custom tiles
With 2 sets of tiles ready, today was the day to dry fit the entire assembly and figure out the last row. Ended up with 5 custom pieces that will be done next week. Will likely rotate the tiles in the final layout (and need to figure out which one goes where). Teak border is also just FPO right now, needs more work to have smooth edges and better bottom shape.
We got hot water!
Tested the water heater and things are working great. Pretty awesome to have hot water on a boat!
