Boat hook
Because we are in a 35’ slip that is just about wide enough (we use ac couple flat fenders) we decide a boat hook was need to pole out. You can see it mounted on the stanchions. Got to look through the power cord etc. It is a Shroud and we have a bunch of attachments for it. We also have another Shroud pole we use for a broom.
Galvanic Isolator
Our insurance company required that we install a Galvanic Isolator as part of our survey.
So rater than argue about it we complied.
Also the Xantrex Freedome 2000 inverter\charger wanted one installed as part of their grounding requirements.
We installed it in the starbord lazerett.

Head LED red\white light
We replaced the florescent light in the vanity in the head with a LED light. It will do both bright white and red. With the curtsey lights on in the boat this light when switched to red allows you to walk through the boat say at watch at night and go to the head without losing your night vision.
New dorade (cowl) vent paint
New dorade (cowl) vent paint
An easy and quick project with a big bang. It was simply a matter of washing them real good and removing old paint. I think we used acetone. We then bought some red Rust-Oleum paint from Home Depot and put a couple coats on. They have held up pretty well so far. It’
s been at least six months.

New Life lines
One of the first things we did was replace the life lines.
We replaced the lifelines and gates and put nice new pelican hooks on them. They are so nice and easy to hook and un-hook and do not jab you like the old ones with the springs sticking out.
