Progress Update: August 24th

(Eric working on plumbing access)

The permanent workshop ports are now completed and installed. The caulking has to set a couple days before it can be cleaned up on the other side of the glass. We will reach these areas using the skiff.
The guest head is next and work has begun on the overhead A/C ducting that  will lead to the workshop. Plumbing access hatches have been cut into the floor boards in the hallway between the main staterooms. One of the side by side utility closets in the hallway has been partially painted and prepped for the new location for the water heater. A shelf will be added above it to hold the A/C unit. 
DJ is currently running wiring needed for the new bilge pumps about to be installed under the hallway floor.
