Well the title said it all. It's been a tough day but I finally have the keys to my new tug boat Anetka, after doing the usual sign over and exchange of money for keys I was on board my new vessel, now the fun or hard work (which ever you call it) can begin. And so it did, first off I managed to get a 240v set up working so I can run power tools and the two most important pieces of equipment, the kettle and radio. Then I set up the 240v to 24v transformer, which wasn't to bad until I hit the polish fuse box/switch board. Confused would be a understatement, but with a careful bit of thinking and a cup of coffee in my hand I managed to work out the internal workings of the board. With a helpful bit of assistance from my friend Paul, we managed to get the wheel box lights working, just a case of getting the front cabin lights working, hmmm. Well after numerous testing and probing to no joy we worked out that the reason for the dead circuit in the front cabin was due to the main wiring circuit in to the front cabin has been cut. Doh', but least I know what needs to be done now to rectify the problem. A good bit of sleep needed and a warm room, then carry on with the electrics again tomorrow.
On a small plus note I did manse to get the radar box working including the circling radar bar, not much use but the kudos when it's all switched on will be worth it.
