Made a custom cover for the wires running to the mast along the bulkhead in the head. They were bugging me for quite some time. Nice clean look now. Just did a dry-fit for now, will stain and finish the teak later.
Conduit for mast wires
Finished wiring DC circuit
With help from my friend Viktar, the final motor wiring and remaining DC components were connected and tested. Batter charger / inverter is in place, 48V to 12V circuit for main DC panel is in place, batteries are charging, motor is hooked up. Was finally able to remove the last remaining old battery – house. Now the boat is 100% on the Victron Lithium-based system.
Head wired in
Mast wires conduit
Dropped wires in. Now need to install connectors and junction box and hook up anchoring light, deck flood light, motoring light, VHF antenna, and Raymarine wind speed and direction transducer.
Bilge control panel mounted
Had it wired in for some time now but finally had time to mount it.
Shore power connected
Back at it after almost 2 year break due to COVID-19. Finally wired SmartPlug to AC panel and connected battery charger for the electric motor.
AC panel installed
Mast starts to look like a mast
Mast work continues
Final prep for engine install
Met with Sean to do final planning, measurements, and parts buying for the electric engine install. That 2A cable is heavy!
