The few things include fitting the new water tank to 'buffer' the watermaker and adding some stiffening to the bimini top since it tended to sway a little in a rolly sea. Both completed as of today.
I have also been looking closely at the electrical system and have fitted a switch to the hetaer element of the heateed door seal on the freezer. This should save us at least 12Ah a day which is about 10% of our overall consumption. That means about 10 minutes less generator time on passage which is not a lot but soon mounts up!
We're parked in Queensway Marina and I'm right next door to the building site so its pretty dusty. Poor old boat! Anyway, sea survival tomorrow so if I don't drown, I'll be in touch!
