New style on toilet and kitchen

Now the kitchen and toilet/shower use ceramic tiles for better look and more hygiene.
No cockroach guaranteed..!

Kitchen tiles under construction:



Toilet/Shower under construction:


The new transom

There's a new transom passenger/fish door, this is suitable to land the biggies or just a very nice passage for divers.





Extending the stern

Stern is extended to have more space on the back, this will be the most happening part of the boat during fishing or diving.




Moving the kitchen and toilet to a better place

The kitchen and the toilet is shifted around 2m away to the front and put together onto the center of the deck making it possible to have an alley surrounding. This will give the angler and the deckie an advantage of being able to walk around the boat during the fight.

Dismantling the old kitchen and toilet:






New kitchen space, toilet is on the left side:

Launching the boat

After the antifouling paint has been dried, the boat launched into the water for the next step of working, cabin renovation and engine's job.





Electronics and Electrical installation

Entire old installation has been dismantled and we put the brand new one.




Transducer placement under the stabilizer:



Painting the hull

Waterproofing coat:





Antifouling Primer - Intertuf203





Antifouling - Interswift655


Put new and wider stabilizers

The new stabilizers are longer and have better angle toward the hull. This will make the boat has less rolling action while the boat is in parallel position against the wave direction.

Good news for the seasicks...!




Repairing the hull

About 70% of the hull's wood which were destroyed by the teredo worms have been replaced with new planks.
