Interesting factoid As we get older we loose high frequency hearing, as this is often an assymetric our localisation skill for sound deteriorates. A child or very young adult can often localize far

Willem, I know about the Chinese battery option which is extremely cheap compare to a more integrated solution. But since my boat is in the Caribbean at the moment I am looking for a solution I can

Hi Kent and Iris. This is actually a common phenomenon. I’m am all but sure if you slack your jib halyard this resonance will disappear. This has happened to me and many others as well. If that

We added 24 volt single color LED’s with a dimmer. They are working great – as said before, a HUGE difference. I choose 36 LED per foot to avoid any shadowing. I used the adhesive back to mount

Hi Michele: I will echo what Jason Rutledge posted and perhaps amplify the procedure. I provided about a dozen photos to Bill and perhaps he will post them if he hasn't done so already.. Jason and

The gas struts that assist opening the cockpit floor and holding the hatch open are seriously deteriorated on my boat. Rather than reinvent the wheel, I was wondering if anyone has found a source and

This sounds like a high frequency resonance issue. With high frequency I would suspect a small component attached to something larger that catches the wind. If you touch the offending item sound

For what it’s worth, the boat I test sailed in 2015 had the main sheet go to the mizzen mast, as does my boat. There is a risk with that arrangement that the sheet will wrap around the corner of

OK, This is a bit difficult for me, as my ears are so bad that I can't hear it, but it's driving Iris to distraction. It just started a week or so ago, and nothing had changed except we anchored in

Juan, I bought 8 Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries (LifePO4) of 100 Ah at 12V with built-in BMS modules from Shenzen Yinkai Power Technology Co., Ltd. Website: www.yinkaipower.com. These batteries

Hello Mohammad This is a lot of Inverting power. You probably not need that much unless you want to run everything simultaneously in the boat 😉 Nevertheless, I ordered the MV MassCombiPro

Dear Michele we did last year because our probe failed and I have tried with success to replace the older one instead to put a new probe for several reasons . We replaced ( my sailor man didi)

Hi Scott Hope you are doing well and everything is ok on board. Next week we start to work on the LFP project and it came to my mind I have read somewhere that the AC cooling pump in the

Hello Ian; My knowledge of the LN175 and Dolphin charger is limited, so I will not be of much help there. I can share with you our current approach for our charging and inversion plans, as we make

We went with a 4 colour led, needs to be attached to a aluminum strip, for the heat sink. Has a diffusion cover. Went with a wired controller, it has dimmer, 3 white colour choice, took the power

Hello Gang, We added a bright white LED string under the cabinet above the sink and extended it all the way to the port most locker. Lots of light Jean-Pierre Germain, Eleuthera SM007. NZ’s

Pat, It's always a little dicey doing what you suggest. Part of the reason is that on a boat "24V" isn't ever really "24V" It can range up to almost 29V depending on your battery charging scheme.

Well, call me crazy but Ireally prefer the cabrio version. For me it’s much more elegant… Cheers, Arno Luijten SV Luna, A54-121

I am fairly sure it was the same Harbour Master for Porto Montenegro, at the Tivat customs dock who readily accepted our Florida boater "license". She squinted to read the numbers, those little

Hi All. Of I believe 68 Amel 55’s built, 3 had the cabriolet configuration. The demonstration boat provided to me by Amel was roundly disliked by almost everyone who came aboard. The guy who bought
