Plugging the Gap

We have finally decided how we are going to plug the gap left behind by the drilling a large hole in the transom for the transducer cable. 

We are going to use a scan strut cable seal. Not the cheapest option by far but it will provide a water tight seal and is a product specifically designed for the job.

No point scrimping and allowing water to enter the boat on a job like this. If we are going to do the job then it wants doing right and saving a few pennies now will only more likely than not cause more work later on.

In other news it is bath night tonight for Sydney. We are going to try him with some baby shampoo tonight rather then his usual dog shampoo. We may be having guests staying over tomorrow evening, but we are not sure yet they may have to cancel at short notice. We won't find out while this evening however so we are unsure what we will be doing this weekend. No boat though until next weekend.

  1. Good luck, Sydney! No shaking yourself on the stairs/landing now, mucking up the decorating.

  2. Hmm. On that note we have decided we don't like the colour of the lower panelling against the wall paper so we are repainting it on Sunday. So we don't mind if he shakes on that bit tonight!
