F32 upgrades

Post by comodave »

I am installing a bow pulpit on my 78 F32. So far it is bolted on and the bow rail for the pulpit is installed. I have my H3 Lewmar windlass bolted on, but not wired in yet. I am going to install a spotlight on the front of the pulpit, but that will be done tomorrow.

Also installing a hardtop/sun shade top over the cockpit. It is almost done, but I am waiting for a couple of spacers to be shipped from Atlantic Towers that should be here tomorrow.

A lot of work is going on inside the boat. I have the new countertop installed in the galley. Getting ready to put in the depth sounder transducer tomorrow. I am doing new navigation equipment on the bridge, so I am running power to the bridge along with a new switch panel.

I have some photos of the pulpit on my photobucket account, but am not sure how link them to the site.

I am trying to attach some photos, but am working with an iPad and am having some trouble sizing the photos small enough to post. I think that I finally figured out a way to get it to upload. The photo quality is not the best since the boat is in a storage barn and it is very dark in there. The hardtop came from Atlantic Towers. It is not structural, but just for sun shade. The pulpit came from Plasteak. The bow rail came from Bob at Beacon Marine. The windlass was bought for my last boat and I did not get around to installing it. I also added a radar arch from Atlantic Towers. I am in the process of rewiring the AC and DC panels. Today I put a new sub panel on the flybridge for the electronics. Also got the windlass wired and ordered the rode from Defender. I have a full summer of work cut out for me... Looking forward to it.

Dave Nice to see you back, the aft deck cover and bow pulpit look great, would love to see what you ar doing to the interior.

I plan to add a flybridge electrical panel to the Silverton as well, while the boat has lots of electronic goodies at the helm area, the installation of said electronics leave a lot to be desired....sounds like a project brewing!

cheers
