New sink install

This weekend Cass and I worked on getting the new sink installed in the galley, making room for the new stove.

The first order of business was to install the new drain line. So I cut the old PVC one right as it exits the cabin sole.


And after a trip to the hardware store with a sample of the new drain hose and the old PVC, we managed to Frankenstien an adapter together. The key is that it involves nothing permanent, so we can take it apart and maintain anything without any destruction.

The adapter is a double side hosebarb to the rubber sleeve, to a PVC union welded to the old pipe. Fun...


Here is a shot of the galley mid-install... a mess. You can see both sinks, and I believe we are getting the freshwater feed hooked up to the new sink.


And this is how it looks now, but we covered the hole with a cutting board until the stove goes in.
