"Splashdown" will be redefined as "test run", when that happens.

WOW, tsubaki!!...you makin' some reel headway on yer V ;) ...lookin' good, Man!! Only thing I'm a little concerned about is tight gaps around floor hatches...this stuff E X P A N D S in hot weather, and if ya don't leave a lil' wiggle-room it'll make it difficult to lift those hatch-lids ... I know, I know...generally tight gaps ARE good ;) ...

you got the hard stuff done, thats all you need!!

Took me like 7 years to get mine to were it is today, just do a little every year, when the fish get here stop and wait till the fall & spring for repairs!

floor covers leave about 1/8 to 3/16 gap all the way around, thats pleanty of room for the expansion!

I didn't even think about expansion and contraction of that stuff. Well it was 97* yesterday and from what it remember it was about 85* when I took the pictures.
When I cut it, I felt that all the pieces were too small. I'll keep an eye on it, at least I can still cut some more off. ;D

Looking for an easy place to mount the water seperator, may have found it.

tsubaki · #**157** 06-24-2007, 02:16 PM

Cutting a 4'' square piece of stainless and drilling holes for mounting.

Mount it directly over the transom bolts (leaveing the nuts in place) provides air flow and more room around for later, if the filter gets stuck.

Some reason this past week the doldrums set in, Daddy said it's just burnout working on these pieces of chit (we are working on three boats at the same time). Well a little breeze seems to have picked up and I seem to be moveing again.

Did cut some more Starboard.
