Holding tank and gimbaled box (Patreon)

Hi guys 

It's been a head-scratching week aboard Athena. Lots of decisions to make but I think I've figured out 99% of the head. As soon as the sink shows up, it shouldn't take long to get the rest of the head put together. The good news is that it'll be a lot easier to find a sink for the galley. A standard household sink will fit (because of the size of the gimbaled box). 

The most exciting thing to happen this week was properly the gimbaled box. A little earlier today, I made the munt for said box. I'll hopefully be able to do a little test mount of the box up at the workshop this week. Mainly to test if I've messed up the center of gravity. Fingers crossed, I haven't. 

Behind the scenes, I'm trying to figure out the kitchen island situation — specifically the tankage beneath the kitchen island. I'm considering lowering the amount of diesel we'll carry to 600L (158gal) and use that space for a freezer. 600L is still a decent amount of diesel. That should be enough to get us through a winter (heating). What would you guys consider a reasonable about of water and diesel for fulltime cruising? :)

Also, Athena MIGHT get moved to the workshop. We don't have room inside the workshop (she won't fit through the gate), but we've got plenty of room outside the workshop. That would make my life a lot easier, but nothing is set in stone yet.  

I hope all of you have had an awesome weekend!  As always, thank you so much for your support!
