Beginnings of the Piping and Engine Installation

This is a mock up of the forward Black Water tank. It is going to be made of welded polypropoline. All of the piping connections for this tanmk and the two water tanks that lie just aft and have to cross are drawn on the top.	The Perkins engine that came with the hull is lowered for the first time onto it's beds. It has been out to the local truck repair shop to be run on their dynomometer. Better to find out now . The transmission was rebuilt, the Fuel pump and the water pump, all the hoses replaced and it produced the requisite HP. Twenty hours of gentle break in successfuly completed under laboratory conditions indicates that the engine should see a long life. Yes it is a Perkins it was stripped and painted. White is the best color for an engine in cramped quarters so that a glance will indicate maintenance issues.
The salt water intake and strainer arrangement for the boat. from these two 1 1/2 inch scooped through hulls we intend to take all of the raw water to supply on the left side top to bottom Generator, air conditioning, watermaker, and on the right side top to bottom main engine and pressure salt water.	Generator engine beds
The engine beds land on welded flanges on the stainless floor frames.	Ok, this is what the corners in the interior joinery are going to look like and how they are going to go together. RIGHT?????
Rich and Brian put on the base grub for the bulworks and covering boards.	A clean shot with no one in it of the bulwark grub being glued on.
	<-- No hoses on fill pipes to tanks. This is the section of copper pipe that is foamed in under the ceiling.
