So it has been a long couple a weeks since I was able to post. Got the trailer put together again and wiring done. Enough to go and get the boat. Puts lots of pics since I neglected to post them earlier. So see below pics:
Butt connectors where possible and all wiring done with marine grade wiring for corrosion protection
Connection with butt connector, a layer of liquid electrical tape, a layer of standard electrical tape, and I topped it off with an additional layer of liquid tape on top of that.
All wiring covered to protect it.
Bunks being measured for installment. I used Fir with starboard. The fir I protected with Tung oil. It will allow the wood to naturally expand and contract without cracking the protective layer and is easy to apply. You can also see the vinyl that i used to replace the 2x4 keel supports. Will see how well it lasts or if i will have to replace in time.
Close up of vinyl keel support. Rounded all the corners with my router
New winch and safety chain. Will have to shorten the safety chain a little, but better then what was there before
Fulton Hinge installed. Painted edges black to help prevent corrosion and wiring ran through to box
Other side of tongue with wiring box to new 7 pin connection and safety chains
Added some steps to each wheel well
Before When Dropping Boat Off
After
New lights
Close up of bunks installed. Edges routed and end cut at 45 degrees for retrieval
So got all this done, and was going well until...... (See next post)
