    Das sind Teakleisten, die aufgeklebt, dann mit Schwarzer Masse ausgegossen und geschliffen wurden. Sieht immer noch aus wie neu.....

Those 2 skinny black cables are the engine control cables. I ran them along the bottom of the cockpit sole and then right up to the bottom of the controller. I still need to strap the tank down. Not sure how to tie the original stainless straps together yet though. Another one of those thousand little things i need to still do.

The water stainer/filter and the backside of the engine mount. I used Starboard on either side of the transom for aditional strength and to protect the gel cote on the outside.

The new 19 gal fuel tank all setup. I had to move the original fill fitting because new tank had the fill line off to one side and fuel fill hose is darn near impossible to bend very much. And yes, i did order some flexible hose from summit but still couldn't get it to bend as far as i needed so i had to put the fuel fill just about in the middle of the cockpit sole. That white pipe is a new pvc drain line for the sink. The previous owners used garden hose (for just about everything).

The inside of the original controller. I had to buy new cables but the originals from the sail drive would have worked just fine if they were 8" longer. Please don't critique my wiring. Its only temporary. I have to do a complete rewire of the entire boat in the next month or so.

I decided to put the primer bulb on the outside because i'd rather have it leak outside than in, and its the only reason to have to lean over the back other than lift and lower the motor. I also ran the cables through a thru hull cable fitting form West Marine. I think it costs about 15 bucks. The end can be cinched up with a zip tie.

Setup to be completely controlled from the cockpit with shift and throttle cables as well as a choke cable. The choke cable is just an accessory cable i rigged up. OMC does not provide a remote kit for this. The problem it presented was that the cable end had to be clamped down in order to work. I originally set out to design and make a bracket for this but after some thought I decided to just clamp it with some hose and hose clamps to the shift cable which is stationary. seems to work ok for now.

I borrowed some jack stand from a friend to move the rollers for painting. I learned the hard way to put wax paper on top of them before jacking the rollers back into place. Bottom paint is soft even after several days of curing.

This next shots are from a few months after the bottom paint. Looked a lot prettier when it was fresh but the rain water affects the color

The new and hopefully improved bulk head. I instaled 3x3 oak studs on either side of the doorway and directly under the header which supports the mast. I replaced the original 3/4" bulk head with 1/2 5 ply. The port side stud is spanned over the cabin sole which has a void beneath. Though the sole is solid, i still need to get under that stud and build some support up from the hull.

The forward birth has only been repainted. Still needs trim work and a recover for the forward anchor locker.
