This week was a productive one for the boat project.  We spent a lot of time doing wiring; running wires for lights, various instrument gauges, etc, The wires were run through the instrument panel in the pilot house into the cabin where they were hidden behind a hinged mirror.  It is a very clever idea and looks clean and and neat. 
We also attached the white trim to the plywood sides in the pilothouse and cockpit.  The trim made a big difference in finishing that edge and it looks good..
Our biggest frustration this week had to do with the wiring for the new Evinrude motor.  We want to have the wiring in place before we take the boat to the Evinrude dealer to install the motor.

  We ordered the wiring online and it arrived without any instructions.  We had no luck finding instructions online, and there are all these different colored wires.  Who knows where they go?  We certainly have no clue.  The other problem is that it is almost impossible to connect with an Evinrude technician for help.  So we don't know what our next step will be.
In the meantime we put two coats of primer on the hull of the boat, and are sanding that in preparation for painting the hull medium blue.  We look forward to seeing how the boat will look with the finish paint on the hull. 
We also picked up the glass for the side windows of the pilot house.  They had to go back to the glass shop to be trimmed, though, as they didn't quite fit.  We had forgotten to take into account the silicone we put under the bottom track.  We are also waiting to see which glass shop will be willing to put in the front windows.
