SBS – Ep. 135 Canvas Dodger Window Covers
We’ve managed to muddle though quite a bit of our punch list, but there are things that still need to be done before the next shakedown. Some things are more important than others, like installing the watermaker so that we can test it, but everything on here really needs to […]
