The motor couplings have arrived (thanks MMB) and are fitted, and the tug has been in the bath...she sits a bit high to the waterline, which is good, that means I can squeeze in an extra four cells to bring the voltage up to 12volts. I did sit a four cell pack on the deck and it didn't seem to make her sit any lower in the water...result there. The other plus...she's as dry as a bone inside after spending an hour on the water.
The crew are now onboard, just waiting on some tyres to arrive to go round the hull sides, and I just want to tidy the cabin roof up a bit, add a new radar scanner, and we're about ready for her maiden voyage.
Thanks to all of you who helped me with the endless questions, Andy for sending the tug to me in absolutely record time, Norry for his invaluable assistance, and BB for explaining what was what and where it went....thanks guys, much appreciated.
