CS34 Winter Cover

Another perfect day to be working on coving the boat!

Stopped at Princess Auto to get a package of zip ties to attach the frames to the toe rail.

Stopped at a gas station to get 20L of diesel.
Still Time's tank was down to 1/4 full. 
I always try to fill the fuel tank to avoid condensation putting water in the fuel.
Will need another two 20L cans to fill it.

Finished putting up the cover frame, and installed the cover:



Other tasks:

  • dropped the anchor to the ground
  • ran electrical chord for shore power
  • cleaned the waterline scum with Barkeeper's Friend
  • power washed a couple places I missed on the bottom
  • put the boom under the cradle
  • put the bimini frame under the cradle
  • winterized the motor

Here you can see the repair from a partially deployed anchor a couple of seasons ago:

  • empty fridge (drink the beer)

  • winterize water system
  • winterize head
