I’ve been trying to figure out how to get all our Garmin tracks on one Google Map and I think I’ve finally figured out how using a tool called GPSBabel to reduce the number of points on each track and then merge them together. Here’s the result with a few pictures embedded as well.
Warm Weather Projects
Well, since we’ve finally gotten to warmer weather south of Cape Canaveral, I’ve been working non-stop on various critical and non-critical projects. The starboard forward knee was obviously a critical project.
I permanently mounted the solar panel to our davits. (That’s to Totem for the solar panel!)
I made a little electronics locker for our VHF and a stereo receiver given to us by Ken and Bruce of S/V Integrity in Eastport, MD.
I installed another circuit panel, upgraded the ground bus and reorganized the wiring behind the panel. I added remote switches and duplex outlet for the inverter. Oh and I put a couple fans in too!
Finally, now I’m working on replacing the line lines with Dyneema line.
Learning to splice the lines is really easy. The first one I did ended up being three inches short on account of the splice so I’ll need to redo it and plan for extra length for each of the lines.
