Good day today, hull liner installed in the vberth

And, I'm still trying to get my camera running where my wife sent it through the washing machine.  But, four sides, templates made, hull liner cut then glued up, yea haw.   Oh yea, here's the specs on how the prop did ;
Against Current
1500 4.25 73c
2000 5.38 74c
2500 6.33 74c
3000 6.59 74c
3300 6.74 75c

With Current
1500 4.10 73c
2000 5.54 73c
2500 6.07 73c
3000 6.58 74c
3300 6.78 75c

Need to;
Install anti chaff over battery cable
loosen stuffing box glad slightly
Reroute hot water heater hose away from exhaust elbow.
Investigate leak coming from somewhere aft
Stuffing box was cool to the touch the whole time
Strut lock nuts were tight, no leakage around strut mount nor stuffing box, muffler appears to be not leaking.
Alignment was good, no vibration at engine.

And tomorrow will entail tackling the engine room stuff, so I can then move onto putting down the hull liner in the aft berth.  Man, it's finally coming together.
