Starting Phase II

Eric and Mary have just returned from delivering a load of supplies to the boat. The week was spent sorting and storing supplies, ordering batteries, inverters, rope and laying out plans for the future wood shop and various renovations soon to take place. DJ now has most of the electrical supplies, components and equipment to begin Phase II. He will be renovating the electrical system as well as various smaller jobs to prepare for Phase III which will be building the wood shop and renovating the forward cabins. 

Eric and Mary are hoping to move aboard permanently later this year. Once the electrical system is straightened out it will be time to put our small boat up for sale and prepare for the move to the big boat. Eric is also straightening out some health issues with the VA before moving. The vessel needs a lot of work still to prepare her for departure and to perform her duties properly and safely for the many years ahead in the mission field. Please keep our work and calling in prayer as we trust God to meet all our needs.

Lots of heavy duty wire along with a powerful manual bilge pump.
