Re: Converting my Amel 54 to lithium batteries: what I did, what I like and what I don't like (after one year of full time live aboard use)
Reudi,
My AC pump works on inverter just fine. We got rid of the Amel transfer switch when we upgraded to the Victron Quattro which has it's own "smart" transfer switch that can limit input current

Re: What to do with LiFePO4 batteries when the boat is layed up?
Joerg,
My understanding of the ideal SOC for storage is based on two things:

Re: Test plug on a 54 Volvo 110 D3
Bertrand,
The readout comes from the little LCD panel below the tach. At least it does on my D3-110C. I presume your tach has an LCD panel, too?

Goiot Hatch Mushroom Alternative
One of the minor parts that has a finite lifetime on a SM is the Goiot rubber "mushrooms" that hold the portlights open. Eventually they crack and the rubber rots and they just don't work right.

Re: Water maker - mental moment
For us, the easiest way to check for a leak in the freshwater valve is to close the seacock to the main intake strainer/sea-chest and then remove the top of the strainer and disable the head intake
