which is a compromise between    having a  wet   system   in rains  and a  huge dry box.

it has been suggested by a   friend who   sails a ct 41   that we can make  out of re-sourced woods  , preferably teakwood,  a   set up   like a box in which my   electrickery   bus  bars and   breakers  will sit and remain out of path of incoming   rainwaters, which seem to be the  main cause of   breaker failure in my electrics.

all i need is santa claus.  ok so this has an unknown investment level.    we gonna make the   box and trim out of my   “not gonna  die”  planks i placed over my cockpit well   so i donot fall in  by accident.  .    can find other planks for that.  these are perfect for the    electrickery.

this    step will    make it easier  to   organize my   electrickery when it is time to connect all the wires that   others have   disconnected and relocated  to    no function hell.    those include all instruments ,  wind and navigation,   radar,  otto von pile it, and navigation lights and radio.    whoopee..    we can “unchuck” my boat finally.  yes the clown from fla who    sabo’d my boat  did disconnect items     he was  told not to   touch.   unfortunately  bad work is   a long term affair  with   interminable  and semi predictable  consequences, each and all involving more work and more   outflow of   dollars.

and so we  work on…   at least the idea of this box has    lightened my headache developed by the stress of uncertainty.. uncertainty    of   birds future  at sea–cannot sail without specific   issues    repaired and   repaired correctly.  as i donot wish flames in  my   boat, i choose to do this right.

as we repair these  long standing issues   the   load of repair  is lighter,  but   pricing  aint cheap.    i am trying to utilize my resources as i  receive them and   during their tenure in this marina.  this resource is a  transient  travelling ct owner  who has successfully  refit his ct   to be a  quality   voyaging boat.   none of us is  financially independent, so we pray for santas blessings  to assist us in  and with this coming work.
