I couldn’t resist it

It was such another lovely morning that I just had to get over to Malbec and sort out the Savannah’s new panel top covering. While I was at it, I also gave its cabin a good clean out to remove all the dust and mess that had fallen into it due to the work over the many weeks previous.

I knew that I wouldn’t have the time to complete the whole job but I just wanted to get the covering cut to shape and into position on the panel top, ready for sticking down. And that’s what I managed to do before calling it a day and dashing home for a quick bite to eat before starting on the work to get my house ready for my son’s arrival in a couple of days time.

Here are some shots of the results.

I’m very happy with the final outcome and think it’s a big improvement on what was there before. It won’t take much to stick it down, mount the compass and find some proper edging (what’s shown is the rubber moulding that was left over from what I put along the bottom of the new screen).

A few minutes ago, the postie beeped her horn and delivered the little clock/timer that I ordered from China to go into the cutout in the new switch panel, so that’s handy. And not only that, I’ve just received an email to say that my recently ordered new strobes that were on back-order have been despatched and are on their way. So life is looking up 😉
