1 step forward 2 steps back 3 steps.....

As normal things go well up to a point... The oven I dismantled , cleaned and then rebuilt inside the boat can't be converted to lpg "doh", which is abit of a bugger but on the brighter side there may be a electric oven in the mists (fingers crossed). Tonight I managed to finish ripping the wheelhouse to bits, and made a section of flooring so I can have it as a lounge. After a quick Hoover up its looking quite smart up there now and just need a bit of carpet and it should feel abit more homely. I also managed to make a good attempt on my plumbing for the bath and only need one more section of copper pipe to finish it. Just the waste to go....

We have a oven !!!!!

Well it's finally happened, I manage to finally squeeze a oven on to the boat, just need to change the jets to convert onto LPG, it was abit of a challenge as I had to strip the cooker down to fit it through the hatch into the boat, i also managed to rip the useless wall down between the bath and the toilet room. And have also started ripping the wheelhouse out so I can turn it into a small lounge/reception room. Big changes are on the way!!!!!

A bath is born......

Well I thought it was about time I get some sort of sanitation on board rather than using other people's facilities, I was donated a bath and a load off plastic and Perspex. So I decided to get abit arty with it all and added some fluro lights I had floating around to make a nice bath install, nearly completed just need a few more pieces to complete and then to plumb it all togther.








A few months ago...

Just before my holiday from the bit I managed to start getting the floor down in the aft cabin and also made a step in the kitchen over the propshaft to hide it all away. I have also vactaned the hull in the aft cabin and am going to be red oxiding and painting in there soon.




It's been a while ......

Well I have had a lapse I'm sorting the boat out for a few months due to life changes etc, etc. but have finally started cracking on again now so watch this space for more updates....
