Just back from a 2 week sail up to Nanaimo. Now to get back into building. I'm almost ready to add the hull sides, but before I do I want to get the battery box setup. I decided to go with a 46AH LiFe battery. It is compact and quite light. I've build a shelf to hold the battery against BH1. I also made a conduit to hide the cables, which will go up and across the roof to the instrument panel.
A few projects, a trip to Minnesota and some summer sailing has kept me too busy to work on the boat, but I was able to spend some time on it today. Since the last post I managed to get conduit installed. I also installed a drainplug in bulkheads 1 and 8. Today I installed the floorboards. I made these from western red cedar and covered them with 5 coats of varnish. I think they look good!
What a tricky part of the build. Looks great!
