Thursday 16th September 2010 Cercy-la-Tour. Day off. Mike back St-J-d-L

Grey and damp. Mike was back at 1.00 p.m. and I made lunch while he unpacked. On Liberty he’d fitted two medium sized solar panels and a controller, sorted the co-ax connection for his radio antenna, checked his marine VHF radio and sorted out an antenna for that, made a circuit diagram so Paul could modify the electric flushing system on his toilet, modified a fish finder so it would work as an echo sounder using the existing transducer, re-established the 12v supply for his ‘fridge and converted a 230v table lamp to work on 12v. All in all a good two days’ work. Repairing his two tachometers would have to wait for another time. Paul was off up river on the Saône to cross the Doubs and possibly leave his boat at Saverne or Strasbourg for the winter
