Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] 24 volt to 110 Inverter
I put a 24 volt to 100 V under the cabinets over the crew bunk (by the engine room). Ran the wire up through the cabinet down thru the small hanging locker out into the battery box. No problem.

The cheap model which I bought needs a little care before fitting as
they are calibrated, if I understand the instructions

Coolant loss in Volvo
We have just had a curious experience with our coolant levels. Our engine is 6 years old with about 2,000 hours. Very reliable. Last May I drained all the coolant and filled up with fresh antifreeze,
