Odyssey's Photos : Popular Photos : Another pair of hydronic heaters. These will end up underneath the built-up floor that extends the "penthouse" aft to the setee. The one on the left has been fitted with a 90-degree duct that will send heat stright up into the penthouse via a floor grille. The one on the right is actually cut through into the cockpit to heat that area when parked.

Odyssey > Yet another shot at Camanche, showing the deck and the Yachtub.

Odyssey > Starting to re-wire the generator engine. The old generator control system comprised a mish-mosh of relays that were actually not anywhere near the generator itself. I came up with a more conventional wiring harness, a copy of which is in the Drawings folder. I ordered oil pressure and temperature safety switches from Wrico.

Odyssey > 3. The "penthouse" area (so called because there is a small step up from the rest of the main level. The view out the front is magnificent, but the little benches and the small table between them were impossible to use for anyone of even average height. The table is very low to begin with (unusably so), but, incredibly, it also lowered on an electric mechanism, for reasons I can not fathom. (It did not lower enough to bridge the gap between the benches for use, say, as an extra sleeping area.)

Odyssey > This is the system we use to conserve water while waiting for the shower (or sink) to get warm. Pushing a button allows water to flow up to the hot side of the tap and then recirculate back to the tank. We used sprinkler valves and arcade pushbuttons for the controls.

Odyssey > You can see here the underside of the kitchen counter (leaning against the wall). Note the cutout for the sink.
