Tested the masthead 3db gain antenna and new coax installed during last years yard period. It was working fine but we never actually did the test. Tested it all the way from the radio connector with an active frequency generating tester. SWR 1 to 1.2 max across the marine VHF range. VHF reconnected.
Hey look….Humans……and warm weather…….and oooohhhh yea…a battery charge…..that feels so, so , so …energizing!
Some of the holes had to be filled between the hull and the liner. The hull is the outer part, the liner is the fiberglass grid and hull insert that all the internal walls and deck fit into. Like many boats, mine had 813 putty placed between the two part during manufacture. I had a few small voids on 3 of the thru-hull holes that I was to fix before inserting the thru-hull. So west epoxy systems to the rescue, and bit of this a pump of that, mix and blend and then pack it like peanut butter into the void areas. It works like a champ. A bit of sanding to tomorrow and I can install some more of the thru-hulls if I can find an inside person to assist!
