Prepping for a cruise (by Dan Wallace)

The following modifications were made to go off-shore:
  • Added a SSB and antenna (the split lead clip on type)
  • Added refrigeration
  • Converted from natural gas to propane
  • Installed a macerator
  • Replaced the anchor roller with a custom made twin roller
    Put on new anchors and chain
    Newest and biggest electronics I could afford

  • The slotted aluminum toerail was a very useful tool.

    I did most of the work of installing and aligning the equipment on the boat.
