Steering wheel blues

 The problem with my steering is solved, I replaced the helm pump with a new unit. The wheel needed 14 turns, lock to mushy lock. No more! 7 turns. Very happy, The Autopilot is working well. I think that headache is finally solved. Working on improvements to the aft AC unit, it doesn't get enough air on the intake side. I plan to run a 3 inch vent across the bed to draw in more air the bed to draw in more air. We are fitting custom curtains into the front glass and getting rid of that wrap around bra. I hate those things. 115 degrees here today. I had one AC unit running, Saloon unit, it was 82 downstairs. Not bad.
