What do Stinky heads, Rigging upgrades, Gelcoat patching, Hatch leaks & Fishing Rod storage have in common? Only that they were some of our Summer 2021 projects.
1-We try to rid our boat of stinky holding tank and head odors by fixing a leak at the tank/hose connection, and try out the Raritan Saniflex odor shield hose with a 10 year warranty:-).
2-We get a rigging inspection by Charleston Yachting, do the repairs and make rigging improvements that will make sailing easier and safer.
3-We do some gelcoat repairs to fix some cosmetic cracks that have gone a little too deep and polish to a brilliant shine with Brite Products Battleshield Paint Sealant.
4-We replace a cracked hatch.
5-We mount MORE fishing rods inside the boat.
