Well I have started working on Goes Around, Comes Around my Shock Santana 21.
- Put new jack on front of her trailer today. The key in the
old ones gears sheared and it was easier to just replace whole thing. I
got one that is twice as strong as the old one also. It was kinda
wobbly. - Pulled her out into yard and put mast up so that it
is easier to inspect everything and to access the cabin and cockpit to
work on her. - Took a look at the swing keel cable. She will
need to be in the water for me to reach it to replace the broken one. I
have to work out some method of keeping the keel up while i put her in
water and then lowering it without just dropping it all at once. - Need to install the solar panel I got last yea
- would like to get a couple big AGM batteries and a trolling motor to power her
- I have a two battery switch to install
- Interior of boat needs cleaning
- Sails need cleaning
- All rigging needs to be inspected
- Need to pressure wash the hull and decks.
- set out all gear and figure out stowage areas for it all.
- Install gear hammock
- make new door for under sink and install that
- finsh fixing table and re-install that.
- Build v-berth extension over center walkway. Storage under it,,, maybe put portapottie under it?
- Need to find leak in deck window seal or around companionway that water gets in when it rains
- Need to overhaul the drop boards in door. maybe make out of plexi-glass
ouch…. list got bigger and bigger the more i thought about it….. lot of work…. best get at it then. 🙂
