One inch at a time

It used to be that our "tail pipe" exited from the starboard side, just behind the cockpit. John has decided that the occasional whiff of diesel will henceforth only be detectable from the stern. In the refitted system,  the engine exhaust and head discharge vent from our new composting toilet will emerge together into a cloaca-like chamber. Makers of the composting toilet assure us that no offensive odors are to be experienced. This remains to be seen.
 This day, here is the  work of  art that will take off from the engine. One day soon, we will get to fire up the engine and see how it still works. Within 4 months this whole project should come together, so that we will have some place to live while we build out next house, but for the moment, it's all torn apart.
