Don’t get me wrong, it would be great to have a silent boat and not run a gen 24/7. I achieve that, of close to that, 20 years ago by putting...
The 8 hours of full sun sounds great on paper but in the real world for max efficiency the sum needs to hit the panels at a decent angle. Right...
I am not even talking about propulsion but just house loads. Air con, some laundry, refrigeration, water pump, water heater, heads and all the...
Ok... simple question. How many square feet of the best solar panels you can find do you need to produce 10Kwh ?
You can’t even power the electrical loads of the average boat with solar unless you forget about creature comfort like air con...
Thanks. Last time for the 196 pounder we used a dolly down the dock to the Tee head, hooked it up and dumped it in the water. :) i figured it...

New update issued yesterday. The Bahamas is dropping the upcoming RT-PCR test for vaxed travelers that was supposed to come in effect on Jan 7....
And the average person doesn’t see the number of jobs created by “the rich guy in his yacht” starting with the crew, maintenance contractors,...
I didn’t know they made them until I got a couple of pages of their catalog
Been looking for a new anchor and was searching for Pool HHP which is what we have and couldn’t find anything except in Europe or China then The...
