Sailaway shell arrives in 1 week.
We have a lot of appliances, kitchen tops, sinks, taps, cookers, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, plumbing piping and fittings, solid fuel stove, mattresses, etc in a little storage room. Just ordered about 40 items on Ebay...only to find that a bank card cuts off after 15 items...so we had to break the purchases into smaller groups....the courier is going to be driving back and forward permanently to our boat this week....let's hope everything arrives....just off the top of my head, some of the things arriving should be,,,:

stove flue, collar etc
electrical plugs
light bulbs and switches
electrical box and isolators
wire connector crimps and crimper
hole saw set
new jig saw
blades
drill bits
threading taps set
3x110V batteries
Gas fittings and piping
Fusebox


Got a few more things to order this week:

Water accumulator
Paint
Plyboard for the ceiling
Spotlight holders
Some things arriving after the boat arrives:

Flooring
Plywood for walls
all the things I've so far forgotten

The idea is, get the boat, get all the basics in as quickly as possible..so the family can move on board, and have the basics....them being:

electricity
water
cooking
beds
workareas for tv/pcs/xbox/printer/filing :)
