Chaos while Dave does the mains wiring (properly now) #boatrefit #electricyacht

We have had various stages of temporary wiring for all the 240V AC loads on the boat for 6 years. Now I'm doing it more properly. But today (in a typical ADHD way) I kind of got sucked into being more disruptive than planned. It started with emptying the composting toilet, that meant clearing the forecabin and I was able to find some parts I wanted. Then I decided it was a good time to wire in a socket in the forecabin to heat the compost instead of using an extension lead. I did that and realised the route was the same as for the galley and Nook. So I thought I would just do the galley but accidentally cut off the extension lead to the nook, so I had to do both (and the route goes through the cockpit locker which is why that had to be emptied as well), We are now living aboard our Rival 38 Centre Cockpit full-time while finishing a refit so we can launch ASAP. We have a frequently updated blog at https://sustainablesailing.net with membership options and a weekly newsletter at £2 per month for Early Bird Supporters. Our free Sustainable Sailing book is at: https://sustainablesailing.codeberg.page/ Or visit our shop at https://sustainablesailing.teemill.com/ for great hoodies, t-shirts and bags. When we bought Vida in August 2019 she was in a very tired and damp condition with all original equipment and fittings (much of it not working). We have removed all the gas, diesel and paraffin equipment, and are installing all-electric (motor, cooking etc).
