Re: D60 24v Dessalator Solenoid Connections
Hi Mark,
I think if you look closely, you'll see that the 4 connections are in pairs, so electrically it only has two. I imagine the order doesn't matter as long as the wires are attached to

Re: Prepping Onan for short-medium term non-use?
Hi Scott;
It is nice to hear you have had such success with the conversion to Lithium. We will be doing the same in the next battery change.
I would consider running the generator periodically

Re: Mizzen furler
Danny , Its not the top swivel that is the problem, its is the swivel/car which pulls up the sail that is having a problem. I suppose I will first flush it out well before I take it apart and see if

Prepping Onan for short-medium term non-use?
We have the Onan 11kw on our A54 and after fixing the solar wiring (bad install), we are finding that we don't need to use the generator anymore here in sunny Maui.

Re: Mizzen furler
Hi Pat,
before you start any disassembly try this. Lower the sail and flush the swivel with copious quantities of fresh water. Despite the fact it is at the top of the mast it will have salt in it

Re: Mizzen furler
Ofcourse I remember you and Diana!!
Talked to Jonas and he think that the mizzen and the one on the main is similar.
But it sounds like you have managed to take it down now.

Thanks, I appreciate the ideas. I searched the SSCA, of which I am a member, and there are no hosts in Palma. A couple of hosts in the Canaries, but no one in the Balearics. Don’t post on

Good to hear it's working out for you. Have you tried to run AC all night on battery yet? We draw 25-35% if we run just aft AC overnight.

It is unclear to me what you are referring to when you say, "the problem is in the swivel part of the furler".
Are you unable to crank the winch handle drive more than 360 degrees?

Re: Mizzen furler
Ann-Sofie, I am guessing that is the same one documented in Bill's book and it was the furler/swivel for the genoa .I saw that and thus saw that a plug needs to be removed allowing the bearings out in
