I just noticed a small hole in the bottom of the foot, Olivier. Seems odd that there would be a drain hole. I guess that is supposed to be there? Kent On Mar 29, 2015, at 4:59 PM, Beaute Olivier

Thanks for the input on this topic, especially to Joel. Seems I am not alone with this. For now I will just ligtly sand the deck and apply two layer of PU Paint. This should seal the cracks at least

Does anyone have a source for the small red conical lamp covers used on the lamps on the earth switch panel in the companion way and one or two on the 24VDC panel ?? we've lost a couple of

Merci beaucoup, Olivier. I'll do both and see how close they are. If they are more than a mm or so off, I'll re measure and try again. I guess the tolerances will be obvious when we dry-fit

Hi Craig, the only way to let the inverter feed the micro-wave and 230V outlets is to disconnect the shore power cable. Otherwise, they will be definitely fed with the shore 230V (50 or 60 Hz),

Hi Kent, the method AMEL indicates for drilling the hole in the foot is right and should not lead you to make a wrong drill. However, your method with the bolt hole fitted with a piece of screw and a

I think you should try this Turkish website for weather and route planning anywhere in the Med....it has a 5-day route planning feature. http://212.175.180.126/DTS/sea.php. We spent 2 winters at Yacht

I think the Calpeda pump is a good pump. Did you say earlier what is wrong with your pump? The Climma distributor in the US recently recommended a March pump: AC-5P-5C-MD 230v 1020 gph Salt

Olivier, It is wonderful reading your posts. Reminds me of all the information you passed on to Jan and I when we picked up Lone Star in July 2008. Regarding your last post. I thought all would be

Hi Hanspeter, Thank you for the update. I immediately looked on www.windyty.com and it showed the calmer conditions. I love that website!! Cheers Chris Hemera SM031

Hi Kent and Derick, about 220V, here's the priority: 1. Genset has priority over shore power and 2.5kW inverter 2. Shore power has priority over inverter If you want the inverter to feed the

Hi Derick, On Kristy, the microwave and 220 receptacles are wired only to the inverter. The washer dryer, dish washer, A/C, Chargers, and inverter are wired to the shore power/generator circuit. To

Hi Kent, Earlier in this thread you postulated that relay K2 is there to give precedence to using shore power over using inverter power. I am wondering if that is correct. Given the items
