Hi guys!

It's been another busy week. We're selling the car next week, so we decided to paint the saloon. Those two might not sound related, but by painting this week, we were able to sleep up at my parent's place. The fumes aboard the boat while painting is no joke! When I opened the can of Interprime 820, my eyes started burning (despite wearing an appropriate mask). I was hoping to get the BMS hooked up and configured this week, but whit all the painting and driving back and forth, I didn't manage to do that. I will, however, start working on that immediately after posting this :) Fingers crossed for no more shorted BMS's! I'm hoping that I can get the BMS up and running. If I manage to do that, then there is a good chance we'll have pressurized cold and hot water next week! That will be the first time my home has had hot running water in 6 years. It might sound like a small thing, but I'm pretty excited about it ... Ava might be even more excited tho ;) 

I better get on with the BMS. I'll be relieved once the BMS, the external alternator regulator, and the inverter/charger are configured and talking together. We'll be back later to reply to comments :) 

Thank you so much for your support! Stay safe :)

I, for one, would love longer videos. Feel free to push the 30 min mark. I think that is still short enough to keep the folks happy....

Moving along nicely. It is amusing that regardless of how well you plan to get things completed it never works out how you plan. I always have more that I can do. Good to see you both smiling. See you next week!

We might be able to bump them up a little in length when we're not so pressed for time anymore :) I'd also love to do something special on Patreon to thank everyone for their support :)

You hit the nail on the head there :D It's so freaking frustrating to have a good solid plan fall apart hours after having put it together. It seems to happen almost every week. I'll be very relieved when we're finally ready to untie the lines and get moving - the weather is starting to turn cold.
