Various tasks, and progress

Saturday past we got the engine aligned and permanently bolted in, bolted up the coupling to the drive shaft, connected the gearbox, throttle, and stop control cables, the exhaust and the major wiring, and used the key to spin it over.  All good so far!

Next we need some fuel and sea water delivery sorted, and the rest of the wiring, and we'll have a working power unit.




Other tasks are progressing in parallel.

New upholstery:


New cabin top grab rails (the old ones are jarrah and splitting, the new ones Burmese teak):
