....and so it begins...

Well.....all cables and wiring....gone, except for the running lights, Powerwinch cable and transducer cables coiled up on the dash.
Engine compartment degreased and power washed...2wice. what a PITA getting the spaces cleaned on either side of the stringers.
The negative battery cable was partly coiled up in the battery compartment. I cut the zip ties and uncoiled it to find a section with electrical tape on it.
I pulled the tape off and found it burned. Why the previous owner used a 12ft ground cable to reach 5ft I'll never know.

PS........If anyone happens to be in the neighborhood, can ya swing by and smack me upside the head.
WTF was I thinking ripping all this crap out...

64 is too old to be doin this chit.... ?

Anybody want to buy a project boat ?🤣?

You’ll enjoy it when it’s done lol.

The guy who bought my old boat probably scratched his head much like you are. I used Romex wire to hardwire the VHF to the battery.

Slow and steady..... ?
Little by little.....?
One step at a time.....😎

I'm as impressed with that wood ladder/platform that you must have built as I am by the boat repairs!!🙂👍
