So the winter works are getting under way, starting with opening the water tank under the front deck. This tank has never been opened since I have had the boat and recently we have been getting a lot of brown water and rust in the domestic water system.  So I asked Gordons Narrowboat services to open the tank up clean it out and paint it

So the tank cover is off and the tank drained

In this case literally a hole in the water in to which we pour money.

In addition to the cleaned and painted tank we have invested in a microbiological filter which will turn the tank water into clean drinkable water from a seperate font on the sink.  So no longer will we need to carry gallon bottles of drinking water.

To complement this there is a new Soda stream on order so bottled sparkling water is also superflous.

A new shower mixer head and shower head holder complete the makeover of the water system.
