Currently making a list of things to address that I noticed when getting ready to head out

Recaulk the rubrail with something other than 3M products

Re-attach the port side headliner in the cabin

Finish the cabin closet

Add the water tank and transom shower

Get new head unit

Get new portable potty or just a new upper tank. Heat cracks in tank

3D print new hatch latches because the parts are NLA

Finish painting spare drive and swap to address corrosion starting on primary drive

Replace rollers on trailer

Buff the boat and wax it

Add scuff plate to bow

starboard side head liner has come down. so now redoing the whole headliner

the two solid state relays that power the house loads are failing. they are 100 amp mounted to heat sinks with heat sink grease. both drop voltage at over 10 amps. they are only 6 years old and have less than 100 hours on them

and people wonder why I hate electronics.

seriously considering a pair of trombetta bear contactors. big a$$ coil pulling in big chunk of iron making contacts..... other than the coil hold current of 0.5 amps. they are bulletproof.

List of things to do on the boat keeps growing. All the center rollers on the trailer have split since I redid the trailer in 2015. so planning on new rollers.

the center 3-light bar under the keel decided it wanted to crack too. so re-doing that.

headliner needs to be replaced. had the round and round trying to keep the panels up when the velcro wouldnt stick. so now after the 3rd panel came loose by pulling the screws out. time to redo that and finish the cabin

installing the swim shower head and fresh water tank too.

the powdercoat is coming off the tower arch. crappy powdercoat from XTP (industry known issue) so looking to pull the tower and wet-paint it.
