Been really busy juggling glassing in the engine bearers as well as all the other engine room projects, a steady parade of friends visiting, and some set dressing work in Hollywood. Needless to say we're not as far along as hoped (surprise!) Here are pics in the (somewhat) order that these projects were done. Diaphragm bilge pump base assembly in need of some repair old hose fitting New hose barbs cut from a brass nipple and epoxied in old water heater good riddance found something in the manual bilge pump a paint marker, at least I know the pump can produce suction rotted deck on the left was torn out and replaced old bank. hoisted out the same way as the water heater nice crack new battery box, actually, there was no battery box at all previously plywood was glassed, box assembled, filleted with thickened resin, then corners tabbed and painted new bank hex bolts were changed to flat heads
