HI there,
Just thought I'd say hello and introduce myself.
My wife and I have spent the last 2 years restoring a 1930's 40ft wooden motor cruiser here in Norfolk. I've rebuilt her myself, learning most things as I go along. I love working with wood and thought this was a challenge to throw myself at. We've managed to rebuild her from just a basic hull. We're now on the inside after slogging away for so long on the exterior.
We're onto the fun bit now and have installed a new engine, new eberspacher heaters (air and hydronic ones) a new diesel cooker, the lot. We've done everything ourselves with the help from the net and forums like this. I've done a lot of work on diesel engines, fuel installations, plumbing and basic electrics. I'm about to start wiring up the 12v circuits and for sure am going to be asking a few questions to help me out when I' scratching my head. I'm pretty ok with elecs and never go ahead with anything without prior research, investigation and 100% clarity on the issue at hand. But wiring up a boat with 12v is fairly straight forward and I'm taking it all 1 step at a time.
Anyhow, hello once again and Merry Crimbo!! Hope santa brings you all loads of booze!
Adam.
