Devy had to work while I had a few days off between Christmas and New Year's Day. That left me to work on things by myself. And it was tough! We didn't set up with enough clearance from the wall, so I had to fight pretty hard to get the port side laid in. One of my biggest problems was the screws. Have I ever said that I hate Phillips head screws? No? Well, I do. Based on other reading I've done recently, it should be safe for us to use plated screws instead of silicon-bronze as long as we're going with full epoxy encapsulation. We are, so it's off to buy some proper Robertson head screws!

Still, it is starting to look like there might be a boat hidden in there somewhere!
