Solar panels are pulled and will be tested for output and evaluate for re use plus rewire with MC4 wiring if reinstalled

Autopilot removed and wheel fits closer to helm for more room. Mach zero throttle cables are installed. Done for the day.

Windlass wiring in anchor rode locker is done. I am thinking about adding super sticky duct tape over the wiring to help prevent rode from snagging wires and another layer of protection.

Good idea or not? I am not sure how long it will last.

I have seen a tape used under auto headliner to secure wires but can’t find the item

I used these for cable and wire management: https://gregsmarinewiresupply.com/Cable ... uct_id=154

I’ve seen similar products that use adhesive tape vs a screw but I’ve not been impressed with the holding strength from those

Ordering new circuit breakers for the switch panel now and should have replaced them with switches. Darn

When the solar panels were installed , a hole was drilled from roof into the cabin aft electrical chase, and filled with 5200. It took a couple of hours to remove it in bits and pieces but I removed the wires . Fortunately the wood is dry and should bevusing so much goop in the hole and on the roof. How can I repair the hole but keep the chase clear for running wires. I was thinking is using a piece of cardboard then cover with wax paper. Over the time the card board would break down. Another thought would make a round patch about size of shotgun cleaning patch, saturated with epoxy and carefully place into the hole shaft.

Thanks

I used a wire brush to clean out old sealant in the hole . It took about 20 min and used hemostats to remove old sealant then more time to clean hole.

Sealed the wood with epoxy then cut a 3 in circle of mat to make a hollow plug like a sock then will fill the void with thickened epoxy in the morning . Thankfully no rot or wetness
