Various Repairs
Drain plug hole was in bad shape and allowed water past the outside of the tube into the wood...hogged out the old to accept a new garboard style plug...
 Had a slightly used (11 yrs on the old '74) gas cap in storage and picked up a new vent fitting...vent was gone and old gas cap was shot...all new hoses, fill and vent in place to tank...  Speaking of new hoses...filler hose $10 per foot...took 7'...man that's some rough stuff...new ground wire and terminals from tank to filler cap, too...and new ground wire from rear of tank to neg battery post...  Rod boxes...removed the teak trim, repaired the broken edges and cut opening to fit the whole length of the box...then just screwed 'em on...it'll do for now...had some starboard racks never used from long ago...old teak ones now gone...   In the bilge...actually cleaned up pretty good w/pressure hose...new hoses between bigger, oversized cockpit drains...no 90* elbows to slow the flow...runs straight out now thru larger opening...      Well that's some of the stuff been goin' on around here...still gotta do something about that ugly old bottom paint, but that'll come w/time...might do some fishin' first...
