This week we continue working on the wooden hardware to be re-bedded to the deck. After repairing the hardwood hatch frame last week, we continue that work with the teak companionway hatch slide rail. It gets an epoxy repair.
The fiberglass work continues around on the deck around the butterfly hatch to prepare and finish it for receiving the companionway sliding door.
We show how to identify and correct a water circulation problem on the air conditioner unit on board. We want to avoid the dreaded HPF error. When you get an HPF error in the summer (Running the A/C) then it is likely a water circulation problem when you get an HPF error in the winter (Running the reverse cycle heat) it is probably an air flow problem. We show how to correct what just turned out to be an airlock in our system from having had the boat hauled out and getting air caught in the line, and the pump losing it’s prime.
And Lastly, we go and see another great show the local community theatre called “Let’s be Frank” which was a Frank Sinatra performance from a great actor/singer that we have seen in a few other local performances. It is always a fun family night out.
