October 9 Plans

This Saturday is our sixth wedding anniversary so we thought we'd do something really romantic--be race committee for a club race and then host a pot luck dinner at the club!  I suppose this is fitting since we DID meet at the Yacht Club (in June of 2003) and we had our wedding reception there! 

I am really itching to work on our wiring.  I took apart the wire conduit that leads from the lower helm to the upper helm and the overhead panel above the lower helm to feed the "limo light" cable through there and found all sorts of interesting things, including a fairly heavy duty looking wire that was cut and a wire that looked like a lamp cord or cheap home extension cord.  Actually there were LOTs of cut wires.  I would really like to clean the wiring up and in the process remove all the electronics that don't work.  For instance, the GPS the lower helm does not work.  Actually, to quote the P.O., "it works, the display just doesn't work."  I am not QUITE sure what about it "works" if there is no display???  The antennae works? and with no display, that helps HOW??  Hopefully checking out all the wiring may lead to some things working again...  Hey, it COULD happen!
