Mastervolt alternator overcharging
Had a related problem once. It was blamed on the Mastervolt regulator. Replaced it. Problem continued. It was later determined that wire connections had become loose after 1200 miles passage.

Adapter for European tv to use in US
We ordered the Samsung Smart tv on our new 55. It worked well in La Rochelle but gets no tv signal in US despite a large antenna. What kind of adapter or converter box will make it work? Thanks Aldo A

My original brochure says 16 tones ,loaded and 14 tons empty. A friend is telling me that those numbers are wrong and it is more like 24 tons fully loaded. Any well founded guesses from anybody? Aldo
