I will be heading back down to our 1981 Stevens 47 late next week to begin tackling some major
refit work.
First on the agenda is to totally rip out the ancient fridge/freezer and build a completely new system. I am going with dual Frigoboat units with
keel coolers.
I also need to get our existing
dodger and
bimini top modified to a full
cockpit enclosure and have some large sun shades made.
I also need some
stainless steel fabrication and welding in order to have the stern pushpit extended up to the gates. I want all the railing/lifelines on the stern of the
boat to be
stainless steel as I plan to mount
solar panels here. I also need to have one of our
water tanks modified or a new stainless tank made.
I am also going to be installing a larger
battery bank,
battery monitor and a number of bits of new
electronics and such plus my
electrical systems needs some general
repairs and
cleaning up so I need a good
marine electrical guru.
So.... REFERRALS! Who can refer me to some talent in the
Jacksonville area for any and all of the above type skills. I need GOOD and
CHEAP... or at least reasonable.
Thanks!
Terry
