REAR DECK
Some radical deck work was required due to rot out and delamination of
the plywood and fiberglass. Removal of rotted plywood, replacement and
refiberglassing was required. Similar work over the port water tank is
planned for next summer. Painting with non-skid medium (silica sand
spread with a flour strainer) finished out the deck. A 4.2 kilowatt
generator shares the rear deck space. It is a noisy unit but the price
was right and I plan on a solar-voltaic unit soon. I use the generator
only for charging the batteries, making coffee in the morning and using
the microwave. A rear canvass awning is also planned for the near
future. I'm not quite sure how I will do this but will probably use an
off-the-shelf RV unit. A swim platform was added covered with the same
wood-polymer product used as the bump rails. Twelve volt lighting as
added for safety, visibility and ambience. I used off-the-shelf RV porch
lights with removable lenses.
