My 400 euro abandoned boat gets a new depth gague | S4 E28 HD 1080p

Abandoned and drifting. When I first came across this 1988 Beneteau First 305 the engine was in bits and the sole boards floating. Just 8 weeks later she is back in the water and sailing. Now the real work starts.

This week I fit a new depth guage and get 240 volt working via inverter. Finally I can vacuum!
