Further Tweaks - 11th June 2019

A number of the new replacement parts arrived so I headed to the boat to fit them before the next batch of bits arrived. Very pleased with the results as we start to return our Greek Princess back to her former glory.

New Clean Air Vents
That's better all a bit cleaner
Fly bridge vents replaced
New Catches for access hatches
New Pots so we can open the stove cover
Perfect fit

Fix-it Weekend - 7th/9th June 2019

We went to the boat to carry out some maintenance and get the trim & tilt system working properly and resetting the trim tabs which are now working perfectly also fitted engine hour meters in the aft deck and wired them to the two engine solenoid and earthed to each engine.

Drilled the aft area to take the meters
Sealed and fixed in position
Just the job, easy to read and monitor fuel usage and service intervals
