I thought I was posting some blogs to this line but apparently this was not the case and I am days behind. Bummer as it was good stuff.
The day dawned with wind in the rigging but overcast skies and lower temperatures. SAM & and I had breakfast and a leisurely coffee before I headed to the clubhouse. Not too much was going on so I came back to the boat and started working on the LED Fwd Head project I started yesterday. Before long I realized I needed some parts from the local ACE Hardware so I headed out to buy some crimp connectors and a simple hole saw drill bit. Sans drill bit I headed back to the boat to finish as much of the project as I could.
About noon I rounded things up but still needed the 3/4"+ hole saw. SAM & I headed for the Home Depot and got the very expensive Milwaukee mandrel and 3/4" saw and headed for Steak n Shake for lunch (My 5 way Chile was reasonable but SAM's burger was mediocre). After lunch we haeaded back to the boat with a stop in between.
Back at the boat, I finished the forward head outboard fluorescent conversion to LED White/Red conversion. I finally got a chance to use the white butyl putty to hole the wires into place while I mounted the lens. Afterwards we tried the light and it worked AOK.
SAM is now down at the clubhouse cooking the fishe we did not want to stink up the boat cooking locally. Not too sure where she is as it is now fully dark. Probably working on the crossword puzzle. NOPE HERE SHE IS WITH THE FOOD! BYE.
