A 2008 liveaboard boat with aging electrical infrastructure gets several targeted upgrades in a single work session.0:01 The owner restores tank monitoring by wiring the boat's factory fuel and water tank sensors into a Victron Cerbo GX display using spring-loaded terminal blocks; alligator-clip testing confirmed the pinout before crimping and heat-shrinking the connections, and the Cerbo now shows forward and aft water tanks plus the main fuel tank.0:47 A third solar charge controller, previously invisible to the Cerbo because it used a proprietary protocol, is brought online by adding a Victron USB adapter and routing a 50-foot USB extender through conduits behind the holding tank.7:06 Two Airlock 1 bipolar ionization units are installed on the boat's two air conditioners to reduce mold, bacteria, and odor; each draws one watt and is wired to the water pump circuit so it only runs when the pump moves.3:02 A blown 8-amp generator fuse leads to discovery of three chafed wires inside the generator's vibrating metal enclosure; repairing the insulation restores the generator's ability to start, though it still won't stay running.13:07 A double-decker "bunk table" project is started and then scaled back after the stacked height made the cabin feel cramped.8:47 A new dog ramp doubling as a docking platform is also installed to stop a carbon dinghy from slapping.16:55
