But they dropped off at lock 4, and it was just me and the roving lock tenders for the last three locks so I figured I could drive Mazurka style. I was traveling with another boat and on my best behaviour for the first half of the day. I left this morning with charged batteries, but have some power management issues. I decided to try to limit my use of the thrusters. I took a video tour underway from the flybridge.
I love lazy rivers like the Trent, and the locks break things up, though there are a lot of them on today’s segment. Sunny, light winds, temps in the high teens. After a good warm dry sleep I left Campbellford at 0900 and got to the Murray Canal at 1730.

This one is from my favourite lounging position in the salon looking aft. I suppose I should start taking some interior pics. I’m feeling fortunate to have the boat and the time and money to make it pretty perfect for me. It’s a big unusual boat, and the finishes inside and out are very nice. Things are moving along at a nice pace.Įscapade is getting lots of positive attention here. Will order shrink wrap also this week, to make sure I get the size I need. Replaced a bunch of halogen bulbs and swapped the old incandescent to LED. I’ve been slowly going through the inside, and all is good. There are no other big projects imminent. Maybe I’ll install the Espar on Tin Lizzie. I have a small new Espar forced air heater that I had considered installing in the pilothouse, but the fully integrated hot water system makes more sense. There’s a recent discussion on Trawler Forum that has helped guide my thoughts on this capability. It can be added later, but I’m inclined to do it now as part of capital improvements. I’m debating whether to incorporate a heat exchanger that would allow me to capture waste heat from the motor for some heat when underway. There is a huge amount of equipment space on this boat, and installing heaters and running pipes and cables should be very easy. The furnace will also live in the stern under the cockpit and vent through the transom. Found a local sales and service rep and will try to finalize the order this week. I’ve pretty much settled on a 50,000 btu marine hot water system by ITR that will have individually controlled heaters in each cabin. It should be quiet and smooth when running. The old generator had a double isolation mounting system and I’m going to mimic that for the newer generator. I brought the Westerbeke 5 kw generator with me from Mazurka, and it fits nicely under the cockpit. Not my first choice, but inexpensive and practical. The seller bought four new 6 volt FLA batteries at closing, and I’ll likely build on that for the house battery bank. More work to follow on batteries and charging systems. It should easily keep the fridge and lights on. I really want to be self-sufficient and comfortable off the dock, and solar is part of that. 700 watts of flexible solar panels that will almost cover the top of the pilothouse, and a fancy Victron controller.
