The new pedestal guard with two Navpods to
hold instruments.
The radar is aloft.
On a bigger note, after three months of cutting, sawing, grinding, and much fiberglass work, the new fuel system is done. It consist of 2 forty gallon tanks, a duel fuel filter set up, about a million miles of fuel hose, and a "butt-ton" of hose clamps. I bled the system and placed the key in the socket. The old girl turned over in two seconds and purred like a kitten. There was much celebrating and yelling.
Here at Team Helios, we like to celebrate with the traditional bologna sandwich and fruit punch.
My mainstay meal during the rebuild
Another fine meal in our new home.
Now it is off to install a new fresh water system. After the fuel system, it should be a lot easier. I can't believe I just said that.
As a side note, the word Butt-ton was used during the course of this blog. A Butt-ton is a unit of measurement that is more then a "whole lot" but less then a bazillion.
Cheers,
