Tuesday was lots of work. Ray Wolfe, our surveyor, arrived at the yard early and we got to work quickly.
Yesterday, 11 November, was lots of plumbing and electrical checking. The two water tanks and three waste tanks were filled with water looking for leaks. All fixtures were checked for hot & cold water and leaks. The bilges in the five water tight compartments had water added to them and the electric bilge pumps and manual bilge pumps were checked. Lights, AC & DC outlets were tested.
About 100 gallons of fuel was loaded yesterday afternoon. We'll fire up the generator and test it for voltage and frequency stability, next.
I am not sure whether we'll have time today to do a sea trial on the river since the owner of SD462-02 (the boat launched last week) is making a one-day visit to the yard and there is lots of activity associated with that.
The sails have arrived but not yet been installed so perhaps a sea trial will be Thursday with sails up. Lots of testing left to do!
