Progress so far

Pulled the leaking tank, got a plastic one. Have holddowns in place but need to reroute the lines. The wiring was a mess. Replaced most of it. Put in a new distribution panel (switches and fuses) works great and really cleans up the console. One problem they are lighted switches but I can't figure out how to get them to light. There were no directions with the panel. I know I must have to put a jumper on some where. Can any one give me a quick hint.

Jobs remaining: finish some wiring, remove thru hull transducer that looks like a boat sinker. It runs thru a wood fairing block that is soft. Remember to glass hole where transducer was! Gel coat the worst of the dings in the hull. Paint bottom. Buy and install VHF. Sweep it out and put it in the water.

Saw a post about the the two under gunnel rod pockets. Mine were pretty badly cracked with most of the flanges just hanging. Lined them with glass tape and resin. Look good and seem bullet proof. A lot cheaper than buying new.

Finding a permanent home for it is another story. Probably for tomorrow night.
