Long time no update. During last week's haul out did the following 1. Removed three gate valves (galley and reefer drain, black water discharge, fwd sink drain and toilet raw water intake) and replaced with bronze Groco ball valves. Thru hulls were good. 2. Removed and glassed over two old thru hulls. 3. Removed and replaced water tank (great response from Catalina Direct. New and improved tank fit like a glove and all fittings were correct. 4. Replaced interior backing block and resealed fwd U-bolt (trailer tie down) 5. Redrew waterline and painted hull and keel.
Next time will take swing keel to bare metal and coat with Interlux 2000e, replace cable and install anodes.
