s/v Dreamboat Annie - A Westsail 32: June 2015
http://svdreamboatannie.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 19, 2015. I started plumbing the pressure water system today and I'll tell you, plumbing is confusing! It's not so hard as to the layout and where everything goes, but all the different size fittings, threads, types, etc., it took me almost an hour just to find the right fittings for Stage I. Stage I is what I call the Plumbing Engine. It consists of the strainer, water pump, accumulator tank, water filter, and a check valve. Fair seas and God bless! Without the Plumbing Engine. A 32 foot bo...

s/v Dreamboat Annie - A Westsail 32: Pressure Water Baby!
http://svdreamboatannie.blogspot.com/2015/07/pressure-water-baby.html
Friday, July 3, 2015. After three phases of plumbing, numerous trips to Home Depot, Lowe's, and the local hardware store, and lots of kinks, (literal and figurative), I have pressure water baby! Today I finished my plumbing project by running the delivery hose. I came down the top of the bilge, T'ed off to the Galley and continued on to the Head. Of course, to run the hose like I did meant moving everything out of the settee storage. Needless to say, It was a mess! Fair seas and God bless! Matt and Jessi...

s/v Dreamboat Annie - A Westsail 32: April 2015
http://svdreamboatannie.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 30, 2015. I'm pressing on. despite my tiller setback, (more on that story as it develops). The headliner for the mid-ship and head is up. I still have to do all the trim-work and detailing, but the insulation and main panels are up. I also scabbed in plywood patches where a couple of V-Berth storage doors were. I did this in order to make a bigger top step for Fuji. I'll detail those tomorrow and finish the step. Fair seas and God bless! The A/C is directly above him. He's smart! Working ...

http://dominamari.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-aboard.html
Wednesday, November 19, 2014. Well, I did it! I moved aboard Friday, November 14th and it has been great! Of course, she's still on the hard which makes it a little more difficult due to bathroom facilities not functioning when she is out of the water, but that has been a minor thing with marina facilities nearby. I then made a cup of hot chocolate and enjoyed the beginning of a this new lifestyle. Eight more days and she will be in the water! Fair seas and God bless! November 19, 2014 at 2:40 PM. Mark a...

s/v Domina Mari - A Westsail 32: Electrical!
http://dominamari.blogspot.com/2014/10/electrical.html
Tuesday, October 7, 2014. No, I haven't quit; I've been doing electrical work, as in, pulling new wire from bow to stern. As most of you know, this blog is a picture heavy blog and pictures of pulling wires is not very interesting. Of course, I could have taken pictures of the lamp cords that were spliced into the old wire setup but that would have been a little boring also and would have only made me mad again. Bottom line, I am pulling all new, tin plated, marine grade wire throughout the boat. Call to...

http://dominamari.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 23, 2014. Today, after work, I went to the boat to finish up the sole and secure her for the next week. I am traveling to California to meet my fourth grandson, Everett. I will not return until late Friday, so my next post will be at least a week away. I'll be back in a week and all jobs/projects from then on out are splash related; in other words, stuff that has to be done before she can go back in the water. (Check out the RED stuff under my punch list. Fair seas and God bless! Well th...

http://dominamari.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 26, 2014. Mast Alignment and House LED's. Today, after work, I met Jack Webb from s/v Drifter. Then I moved on to a fun job. I just didn't feel like getting into anything too complicated. So. to the main cabin LED lights. I simply used Multi-Colored Waterproof LED lights.
