Thanks! We had a blast. Of course, we thought of lots of other stuff worth demonstrating, AFTER the presentation ended! Thanks for the opportunity, and it was a pleasure to play with

Hi Reudi; To clarify, in order for the sensor to be isolated, you need two wires. You cannot have an isolated single wire sensor, since it will utilize the engine block as the negative leg of the

I have a 1988 Mango no.71. On recommissioning this spring, the electric outhaul for the mainsail is not working. A quick look by a yard worker suggested the solenoid might be bad. Can someone give me

Eric, Excellent configuration. Where do you get $C heating elements? And is there really a difference between AC and DC elements? Seems it would just be a resistance heater? Different

Hi Reudi, I have a Yanmar, so I can't be specific about your Volvo needs, but in general... To purchase an (isolated ground) two-wire pressure or temp. SWITCH, you need to know the thread size and

Craig...adding as much solar completly changed how we cruised. Before i would run a honda generator as we don't have a onboard diesel one. You really can power the santorin with 100% solar.

Hi John, Like Gary, the chrome on my original rigging looked like new when I had her re-rigged at 13 years old. The new rigging was from a well-respected company in England (sorry, I don't remember

Thanks again Matt & Cindy for the tour, and thanks Bill for setting it all up! I’ve processed the zoom video and added subtitles. You can find it at https://youtu.be/PK2yf-Hzr58 Best, Tilo

WOW Instalation!!!! Looks like nuc power station! keep this one - its value is over the boat value!

So, I don't have an Amel yet but am buying a 55 right now. My current boat, a 2015 Jeanneau 439 has been fully converted to lithium/solar professionally. See photos here:

Thanks, Eric ... and good point Ken - guess it is a "Hot Water Heater" after all! We don't have any solar, so the Hot Water Heater heats either from the engine coolant (which may also be a misnomer -

Hello Rudi and Scott, the reason for the zinc on the SPURS rope-cutter is that it is attached to the fixed blade which is in fact isolated from the prop shaft by a plastic U-shaped part (you will have

Hi Mohammad Thanks a lot for the information. That helps;- nevertheless it’s confusing that the sensor has 2 wires. Because you saidthey send a “single wire” non-isolated ground sensor. If

Craig before you do this read my post about how i make hot water from solar. Not sure how much solar you have on your boat but this is working fine for me for the last 3 weeks.

We have an santorin with no generator but have 1000 Watts of solar. 400 of those watts are shaded - 200 is behind the main mast flexible panels and 200 is on the new hard top bimini (room for more)

The Hot Water Heater also is a Cold Water Heater, and maybe just a Water Heater. But after the Hot Water Heater heats up the Cold Water, the Hot Water Heater keeps the Hot Water Hot. Thus, the term

Gary, The conversion between DC to AC the loss, depending on your inverter, could be as much as 10% to 30%. Also, if you only have 100amp battery charger, then you are only supplying 2.5KW into your

Spot on, Eric! Perhaps not Oxymoronic but at least redundant. However, the adverts do indeed say "Hot Water Heaters" ! Cheers, Craig
