The idea to rebuild counter was based on wanting a larger sink and move it
closer to the front edge.
Without a winter lay-up it would have remained as is.
While removing the counter with the saw, I decided that if I moved the whole
vanity toward where we stand I would have more room under it to add my tank to
collect sink water to pump the toilet with.
We had a 3 gal container in there over the past two years and it worked great. A
5 gal tank would keep us from having to add fresh water from the
sink.
In the salt water, leaving the boat during the week we need to pump the toilet
with fresh water or it smells. Cruising that would not be an issue as it is used
every day.
Some parts tested in the boat. The challenge will be the new round vanity.
All parts including shelves covered with Formica. No teak except trim.
Larger sink recessed so that when I mount the Corian it will look like an under mount sink.
Weather is now down in the low teens for the next week, (Jan 12th) no trips to the boat this week!
Feb.7th, some progress, still too cold.
