Signes and names

The name is painted with golden paint in between the varnish layers. Front deck has an inlay of ash and mahogany made by a friend. 

Pick up, shaft log and gasket

The pick up is used to lubricate and cool the rubber seal (double O ring). Shaft log is screwed to the keel with sealant against leak (silicone type). The same sealant is used for pick ups and through hull fittings (bilge, drain, exhaust, fuel vent, fuel intake). 

Exhaust completed

The exhaust goes from the engine down below the floor to the S-shape pipe that leads the line below motor stringers, than through short rubber hose and than through the goose neck to the transom port. Rubber hoses are high temperature certified. 

S-shaped pipe is welded from stainless steel elbows (3 pieces). Spot welded in the boat to take the proper shape from the work.

The final connection is not done as the hole through the transom will be treated with epoxy and the whole boat will be varnished before the final connection.

Hydraulic steering

The hydraulic piston is bolted to a small stainless steel platform with 4 bolts. It has flexible joint to allow for the perpendicular movement of the arm. Red points are to be connected with elbows and the hydraulic hoses led to the steering hydraulic pump in the helm.
