The bow portholes would have a tendancy to leak or develop a leak behind the vinyl wall covering in the foward stateroom and it would run down the...
Use up all of the fuel. If you drain the tank completely, then let it sit for a week, the algae should all die. I'm not sure if you'd need to...
I run a 62' Sunseeker Predator (which is an express). Helm visibility is on poor side, but not as bad as some other yachts I've driven and there...

The picture is too cloudy to see what model they are. Can you take a picture of the label that we can read? Cantelupi might not produce them...
So are you offering to come over and take apart the boat for him? :D hehehe
I think the situation you're describing, is best described as a "cruiser" and not a liveaboard. Liveaboards are generally at one marina and...
I agree that they last almost as long as AGM's. I have seen the expensive grey casing GEL batteries go 7+ years though in many cases, not AGM though.
I would bring a spare raw water pump for both the gen and the 1 engine. Spare fuel/lift pump for the gen. in addition to what everyone else...
