Next all the lighting was removed and replaced with a marine LED system. Then I thought that I would install a 26 Amp Hour battery to keep the netbook, mobile phones etc charged. (Still waiting for the small (yes - marine) solar panel to arrive.
Also installed is a small safe to keep valuables (??) from being lifted by kind souls.
Why am I doing all this extra work ?? It's not like I have nothing else to do !!
The esky box is now installed and I have weighed everything that I have put in the trailer so far. 56Kg. Only Alanah's tent and our clothes to go so... I may still be well under my self imposed limit of 80Kg load.
Here are a few pics of the work so far.

The safe is bolted down. The battery is velcro'd in place |
STILL waiting on the towbar for the bike. Starting to feel a little desperate for it. Apparently it's in Darwin... somewhere...
It dows not look as if I will get much of a "break-in" period with the setup before I go.
