The lists are getting shorter and the remaining parts to install are definitely fewer. We were able to mount the solar panels this morning and start looking at the actual wiring designs. The wiring is still the biggest remaining workload for us. We have the inverter/charger, battery monitor, regulators, starting battery, and house battery cables to complete.
We did manage to go sailing on Sunday and the conditions were great on the lake. And last night we gave the dinghy and new outboard a test run. We have an 8hp Tahatsu and it ran very smoothly. This also gave us a chance to test the mini-crane to lower the OB on the stearn which also worked great.
We're still planning that shake-down trip to Ohio by the end of the week. Our yacht club and the surrounding areas are full of events this weekend so it will be a good time to get away. We hope to start writing about actual travel very soon!
