Finally, I’m going back in the water. Thursday is the day. The boat STILL isn’t quite ready, but it easily will be by launch day.
I’ve polished off the electrics today, and I can highly recommend the Nasa BM-1 battery monitor. The information it gives you will be a massive comfort at sea when I have lights, instruments, and the auto pilot running.
The plan for Thursday is to get back in the water, finalise any bits I haven’t done (probably some rigging) then take Kudu out for a tide on Friday for sea trials. I’ve made enough changes to the boat to warrant this, to my mind. Once happy, I’ll wait for the weather, then set off again… finally.
I’m just hoping that there are no more problems!
Congratulations and excellent news. Good luck with the sea trials.
FANTASTIC! Great to hear that your nearly there; good luck and fair winds!
Top stuff. Things are looking up.
