I havent posted anything, because since my last post, the family all came on board :) I'm using a battery under the bed to power the shower pump, water pump and toilet flush temporarily, 1 spot light in each room, and temp elec cabling. Other than that, everything is working. Gas appliances are in, hot water to the shower, etc etc. Main problems have been water leaks....my own fault. We have a sink with 3 sinks...all needing the outlets to be joined and sent out of a 1 and a half inch skin fitting. I used a hole saw and cut a hole for the sink, one for the basin and washing machine, and one for the shower pump outlet (3/4 inch skin fittings.) I promise to take pics once the boat is cleaned up a little...dont want to go sticking up photos with clutter in the photo.... We received the sailaway on the 10th Aug ago, and began living onboard, with all the basic services intact, from the 23rd...about 2 weeks....a great accomplishment.:) Since then I've added a cupboard in the main bedroom, a desk, connected a dishwasher, washing machine, shower. Still need to do the following: 1. install coal stove. 2. fit flooring in bathroom 3. properly fit the electrics 4. fit the 12v lights 5. fit the batteries properly, with isolator, fuse box etc. Currently on shoreline so have no need for 12V system. 6. Carpet main bedroom. 7. etc... :)
