Rewire

Rewire the helm's potable-water-pump-in-use-light to work with the cutoff switches use of ground. The old configuration had the positive lead being switched.

Replace the potable water Shurflow pump (4901-4212).

Using the old dodger as a pattern for the new one. Start disassembling the old dodger.

Hose Leaks

Checking the engine after start up found two new hose leaks: engine coolant hose from header tank to engine and; 1-1/4" raw water hose from heat exchanger to copper "U" connector. The first was just a matter of tightening up a hose clamp. The second required a hose replacement.

Fuel Tank Cleaning

Found and repaired a water leak on the intake side of the potable water pump. Tightened up all the hose connections near pump too. Opened all four fuel tanks and vacuumed their bottoms. Found some sludge but nothing serious.
