The SHAD Has Power!

Since getting back in the water last November, all of our 110V power has come from an extension cord hooked up to the shore power box on the dock.  Today, Dave and I were able to more or less finish up our wiring project and not only do we have 110V, we have 12V again too.  YAY!!

We still have to wire the head, but we're pretty much finished. Now we can start getting the rest of the interior back together again!

In order to get to all of the wiring, Dave had to take down all of the tongue and groove in the wheelhouse, so now all of the walls upstairs are bare.  I can't wait until we get something back up on the walls.

You can see in the above photo that we saved all of the tongue and groove in the hopes that we could use it to patch in the gap downstairs where the ceiling was raised. No such luck.  The wall is covered in ship lap downstairs. The two don't go together.   Oh well, back to the drawing board.
