Still Painting... s/v Prodigal

My neighbour said i should paint the deck myself...   then i saw this car in the parking lot and started thinking maybe it's not always best to paint it yourself.

So i pulled the boat out of the water again and it's on the hard at another Marina being painted - Professionally.  

 

This should be TOTALLY finally finished end of next week.  (weather depending)  The entire boat will be painted "like new."  

Last week i had a problem with the aft bilge pump.  The wires got loose and wrapped around the drive shaft, ripping themselves out of the pump and float switch.....      darn!   i had to spend several hours over three days crawling around on my stomach in the engine room re-wiring the bilge pump.  Now it's all back in good condition.

 This required running new wires.
