Starboard saloon shelf box - The conduit was hanging down badly..so fastened it to the side deck-head using a galvanised nail into the chainplate block with cable tie. and a stainless screw with wire tie at the aft end.
There was some disused wires outside the conduit,, on close inspection they were attached to nothing at both ends..they must've been an old stereo sound system wires, so they were removed.
The aft end of the saloon box was further cleaned up by removing the 12v cigarette lighter socket and wires. It disconnected itself so had to solder the end back onto the fitting. then refitted it under the cockpit deck-head close to the cockpit side, with wires going inside the fuse box area. (so the new accessories re-charging area is on the bunk foot)
Saloon shelf box aft end clear for stowage. Grey conduit fixed to deck-head |
The 12v outlet socket relocated. |
The wiring area is neater |
Wiring bundle, bit more shelf space |
The cabin lights - These are old 12v bulb ones,,the switches weren't working. After dismantling the lights , i rewired them correctly - the electric soldering-iron needed So now both lights can be operated from the light rather than at the switchboard.
In the forepeak - with the stereo wires gone this left 2 sets of 2 wires..one had gone up through he deck and was probably the old mast light (now removed). (Thinking it would be easy to add an LED cabin light to the end of that pair.) Another red pair were live, and no idea what they were for or where their switch is. Flagged them with tape and tucked them up.
