The last few days and today I've been working on the bulkhead between the stateroom and the sail storage in the bow. Before installing the stbd half I traced it on a sheet of plywood. Today I cut, fitted, routed, and installed the port half of the bulhead. Why is it that the second half of a project goes easier than the first half? I took 3 pictures but when I went to view them they were not on the camera or the SD chip. How disappointing. You take once-in-a-lifetime pictures and they disappear. Really makes me think twice about going back my realiable film camera.
Yesterday I started working on my 86 Jeep. I was having clutch problems. All indications pointed to a worn out release bearing. So, I bought a clutch kit. You can't just buy, or atleasts it's not recommended, a release bearing. After half a day of grease and yuck working in a gravel parking lot. I discover that the clutch lever arm is badly cracked and and bent. Order the part ... wait for shipping ... put the whole thing back together again. Yes, with the new clutch whether it needed it or not. In the picture the lever arm in front is what it should like like.
Oh well, another relaxing evening. Tomorrow I measure for the stateroom floor in the boat. Finally, something to walk on besides the open floors, tanks, and bilges.
