Fuel Tank

This may be helpful to owner of another Stevens 40.
Our fuel tank started to leak and needed replacement. No small job and the set of plans I have are no were near detailed enough to figure out where to make the incisions. I figured it out after much poking around with an old stainless VHF whip and measuring. These photos sure would have been handy.

Getting Started

Well, spring is pretty much here and its time to put away the tools from the winters projects, SSB (Icom m802), Heater (Dickenson Alaska), and a Hydrovane, put the unfinished projects on hold and start waxing, sanding and painting.

Planning on a June departure to Cherbourg.

Jeff Lazar just finished replacing standing rigging and I'll be picking up new lifelines next week.

Much to do.
