This weekend i have done a bit of plumbing and lined out the Heads but for the water tank side. The floor will be laminated over for the wet room and drained by a pump under the read deck. This pump will also drain the water system as when needed in winter etc The water pump is now under the cabin step where the batteries were intended to go. Now the two batteries will be going the other side of the lower bulkhead under the deck. Here you can see the top horizontal pipe is the balance pipe joining the two tanks. This is to help filling the tanks from one deck filler. The cabin step covers it just nicely. Here is the feed to the heads sink and Morco boiler which I will be T`ing off to. The elbow fitting on the right will be replaced with a T fitting later. so i can go through the heads wall and up to the boiler. All open ends in the pipe work have been blocked off with tissue for now so no dust or dirt gets in the system. Spot the difference. I forgot to add the drain for the water system. Easy done as I have yet to finish it all off yet. All joints will be tightened and tested before anything else goes ahead. Well but for the pie work to the galley sink. I hope to get on with a little more lining out done so I can get the galley framed out this week. Once that is done i can move back over the cupboard and then the berths. Attachments:

The pictures aren't showing for me, and I'd love to see them because I enjoy following this project. Is it just me?

Last job first off was to do a bit more lining out so I can get on with Galley. Again as before with the heads I pumped in expanding foam once the ply was fastend in place. This time i used modesty blocks to help keep the ply from bowing under the pressure of the foam when it expands. Spaced about about 6inch apart when used with 5.5mm ply. You can see here that I left the outer edge sticking out as later I will trim it back flush. Easier than faffing to get it all good now. To keep the outer edge held up in place I jammed the panel up with a few off cuts of timber. Once all panels are set in place just a mater of pumping the expanding foam the drilled holes. To make sure there was plenty under the gunnel i removed the timber strut and applied the foam then jammed the strut back under. This was after 5 mins and i wish i took a pic after 20 mins. Temps were low around 7deg ambient and i was unsure so I used a full tin, i can say i didnt need it, half would of done. In low temps the foam expands less and slower. A slight miscalculation. I left the foam to set over night then just trimmed back with a knife and sharpened wall paper scraper so then I could get on with the galley frame work. Here the oven is in place so the starboard berth has a 5` 6 " length. I am going to look at it again this weekend as i am tempted to move the oven back by about 300mm to gain ore berth length, we will see. The cupboard will be cut back to follow the flow of the galley now. That is the reason i didnt fix it in place last week. The reason for moving the oven back towards the stern is the head room stops half way over the oven so it is going to be a pain to cook etc. The middle of the over will be in the middle of the upright between the windows where there is ( will be ) a down light. I am trying to decide on what matrials to use for the galley storage and work top. At first it was Sapele unit and work top but as I am using a veneered Sapele ply to clad the Heads and cupboard I think it will be to much so we then went with a Sapele work top with a off cream colour ( Coffee maybe ) type for the galley unit and above the worktop. One other job I did the other day was remove the Houdini Hatch as it started to leak again. I have taken it apart ready to be cleaned up and resealed. I just need to order the new seals now, I forgot to do it the other day with all faffing about with this and that. I will give a wright up when i do this of how i did it as most folk say it is not possible. We will see how i go, if I manage it i will show. I used some DPM and taped it in place to keep it all dry. Another job a did a week or so ago. I do forget what i have done with all these bits and bobs to do. Not a big job but i had a go with a gas strut on the cabin door top section. This a 120n strut and it works ok`ish just not enough for me so i will be getting a 150n and in 316 stainless steel. This one is a cheap one of my fish tank lid that I had spare. now more than a few quid. A SS one is around £40. I must be mad lol. After work today i near finished the rear deck locker hatch trim. I need to drill and fit them now. This weekends job along with the galley to be looked at more.
