The Garmin network is joined with a Chirp Sonar transducer and a Sensor Transducer:

The fittings are a pair providing underwater information, which was not fed to the previous recreational fish finder, which only read fish under the boat.

Seabed formation and chart datum, is accessibly given to the network for navigation and detailed pictures of below waterline with the new Garmin devices.

A pleasure ship with more to meets the eye of trans-ducers.

The original post at the start of the refurbishing was titled, The Changing Room, for a reason.

The original saloon was solely for recreation and endurance of offshore travelling. The first phase of refurbishing took shape with the erected wall behind the helm, then refurbished seating with a new casing of cushions. The colours were emerging and blinds added the same year, showed promise of the executive potential.

The now refurbishing, was for the wall and privacy door behind the gangway and navigation desks. The original storage units were stripped down. And a research station desk fitted over a new flooring. The addition of a glossy black coffee table, low and square with orientation of its own 3 layers, gave the saloon a contemporary finish. The new shelf and units for book and drinks storage, was an innovation after the original stripped down storage units offered parts that could be used. An ornament table was made collapsable, with the same original material.

The new grab rails, fitted to required standard for coding commercial merchant vessel of this type. The 8 grab rails are positioned for the crew to attach harnesses to in rough or even only choppy weather.

The positioning was made to suit the safety of crew and passenger movement, while keeping to the build lines of the trawler.

The interior grab rails needed to be fastened to the fixed storage unit, to securely perform without risk of being a damage or annoyance. The movement in location left an extra grab rail needed, for the counter and cooker area of the galley. These interior grab rails were white cap teak, available from Amazon at under 20 euros.

The fixtures of the interior grab rails were done with drilled holes from the handle end to the foot end and then screwed into place. The other option was to drill from the storage unit into the grab rail feet. Wood oil can be applied to protect the wood colour.

The exterior grab rails were fixed with a drill screw and sikaflex, over the strongest mounting points, to avoid splitting the fibreglass. Then polished clean, clear for cruising speed at optimum anytime. To your seats, its approaching.
