hi,
I solved it a bit different.
I bought a second 12v battery and connected both in parallel. the minus cable between the two batteries has also a diode so the second battery is always full and can

Re: Fresh Water Tank cleaning with isopropyl alcohol
Gregory,
Both of course are poisonous. Chlorine has been used to disenfect water systems for a long time so safe practices are pretty well documented. I am not sure that I have ever heard of

When it comes to potable water, most of the industries world wide use Sodium Chlorite. It is a registered antimicrobial pesticide (EPA Register Number 5382-42). It's uses are potable (drinking) water,

Re: Fresh Water Tank cleaning with isopropyl alcohol
Chlorine (bleach) is simple and easy....fill up the water tank, put some(?) bleach in, leave it for 12+ hours , pump it out, use a hose to spray inside the tank (use the inspection ports in front of

Greg,
Isopropyl is poisonous. Perhaps all residue could be removed but I think chlorine products would be safer to use. We opened all access hatches and hand scrubbed with soft scrub followed

Hi Paul,
Bill's solution works nicely.
Another option is to install a small (10-20A) Dc-Dc converter/charger between the 24V house bank and the 12V start battery and use this as a means to keep your

I had someone contact me with that exact problem. They have 24V LiFoPO batteries, and managed to drain their 12V starter battery to the point it wouldn't actually start the engine or the genset. And

Re: Bow paint worn out.
Thanks John,
When I'm ready to redo the whole bottom, then Copper coat will definitely be a consideration, but right now I'm just looking for a more pragmatic approach to protect less than a meter

Re: Bow paint worn out.
Hi Dan
Think about moving to copper coat which is a water based epoxy. I put it on to the top of the orange stripe. Pulled out after 16 months mainly to check anodes. Instead of 3 to 4 days sanding

Bow paint worn out.
We've covered a few more miles than usual since covid and we've been wearing away the bottom paint at the point of the bow each season. We have added three coats of micron 66 on the bow each summer

Paul,
It is not only the starter but every component connected to the ignition circuit on the main engine and the generator. A simple solution for backup would be a Car Charger with a Starting Cycle

Due to potential for mismatched cells connected in series I have considered 24v Li batteries to be the best option.
If 24v batteries are chosen what do you do about starter motor battery backup?
