Tanks and first bit of paint (Patreon)

Hi guys!

Happy almost weekend! In this week's video, I clean up the diesel tanks, expecting to be able to re-use at least one of them. I also get lights put up inside of the boat and get the engine compartment painted. This video was shot right before I headed to Michigan to spend Thanksgiving with Ava.

In real-time, I might finally be able to finish the 3D scanner video next week. I want the end of that video to be having the molds of the tramp ramp hatches so that I'm ready to lay up glass. I have started ordering parts for the engines, but I suspect it will be a while until I have all the parts so I need some kind of side project - those hatches will be perfect! Especially because I also have gotten the parts from SendCutSend for the second anchor roller. That means I can finish the tramp ramp. That is one of the major milestones I want to complete before next summer - a working anchoring setup :)

Tomorrow, if the weather is okay, I might lend a hand with applying coppercoat to Jim Edwards's boat. Jim is the US distributor of coppercoat. I figured that was a good chance to get some more tips on applying coppercoat. We have had zero issues with Athena's coppercoat, but it's warmer here in Florida, and to be completely frank, it'll be nice to practice on someone else's boat before the catamaran ;)

Have a fantastic weekend! Thank you so much for your support :)
