hello i'm tying to reinstate some 'lost' original installations on our maramu. one of them being the double bed on port side in the salon. putting the second wooden board under the port bench board is

Thanks. I hope that I can find an equivalent here. Horst Maramu 185 ________________________________ From: amelyachtowners@... [mailto:amelyachtowners@...] On Behalf Of

I use trojan 105 batteries which are 220 ah, cost about $100 or less US. I use all 6 batteries for the house, and installed a separate 12 volt starting battery for the engine. Eric maramu 105 Horst

David, I agree with your wiring diagram as set forth in the first part of your email, but I question if I understand your last comment about orienting the batteries + - then -+ then + - then - +. You

What batteries do you use? Have they got bolt and nut connectors? I bought (expensive) Deka Saturated Glass Mat, 12 V, and forgot to physically disconnect the inverter during a recent 4 month

David, I guess I missed the 24 volt question. I just wanted to clarify the manner in which the batteries are connected. I have seen owners try to connect all of the negative terminals together, or the

ah ha but - Bill has a 24 V system on his SM2000 which is why i posted what i posted regards David

Bill you connect the positive terminal of one battery to the negative terminal of another battery, and those two batteries equal one 12 volt battery. You will have one positive terminal( which I will

cunfused i am you will need FOUR 6V batteries wired in series to produce 24V if you have EIGHT 6V batteries then you have two sets of 4 series wired batteries wired in parallel to double the AH

Eric & John, I am intrigued by this 6 volt option. I have 12 house batteries. . I assume that you would divide these into 4 parallel wired sets of 3 batteries with an output of 6 volts per

6 volt is the only way to go. you can discharge/ recharge a 6 volt battery up to 1,000 times compared to a 12 volt, which the best only go around 250. The plates are twice as thick on the 6 volt. I

HAS ANYONE HAD ANY EXPERIENCE WITH 6 VOLT BATTERIES FOR THE HOUSE BATTERIES? I HAVE HAD GOOD LUCK WITH ROLLS BATTERIES. I AM NOT IN NEED YET, BUT WANT TO PLAN FOR THE FUTURE. JOHN

I wouldnt rush to give up the Autoprop. Ours is no. AP 3294LH, which was recalled for a new locking plate so we fitted the fixed prop to take us from the Caribbean to Ecuador, involving 6 days of

In previous years I have found my Autoprop severely fouled after leaving the boat in the water in the winter. This resulted in very low engine revs until cleared. During the last haul out May 05

I agree that the Autoprop is sensitive to marine growth but any propeller is I think. Regarding SEAJet product I tried it without any good result. So I do not recommend it. My question to John : what

Steve: Thanks for your thoughts. I have inquired of several sources about these issues and this is what I have distilled: There are two separate phenomenon both of which are applicable to any RO

Gary, I may have a possible answer to your question about the higher EC reading when the pressure is below the green range. According to Rod Boreham, the membranes are not perfectly
