Having finally
re-positioned the
motor, it was time to tackle the Lazarette. I was thinking that
this
area was one which could be finished fast -- just install some shelves
and paint. Wrong!
There was how to support
the foot
well. How to route the drains. How to route the exhaust
hose.
Where to mount the shutoff in the exhaust system to prevent sea water
from
entering at the wrong time. On and on.
Here's a look at the aft
end with
the deck beams and footwell. The white splotch is where I had
painted
behind the muffler. I finally decided I didn't need one --
apparently
the Sabb sounds good without and any time I can eliminate a component I
try and do so.
The Lazarette shelving. There will be a
16x16 inch
hatch in the deck right above the lift out piece in the Laz
shelving.
The shelves are an easy reach from the foot well. The exhaust
hose
cut off will be mounted onthe back side of the foot well. To get at the
dogs on the hatch and to give easy access to the valve -- there will be
an 8 inch port in the back side of the foot well.
The interior is getting more and more crowded
with machinery,
tools, etc. -- soon the entire shop will be in the boat.
