We furled too loosely and jammed once. We got ours loose the same way. Back and forth, tighten the furler, tighten the outhaul, loosen a bit, then repeat... a lot. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

I hope you’re right. Wife and I have the same plan. It’s great in the states. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

We used Travelex, much less expensive, includes medivac and flight insurance. We also depend on Medicare in the US. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Believe it or not, many brands of oil originate from the same refinery. Economies of scale require large quantities of a particular grade of oil to be run at one time. Many retailers send their oil co

Younwould need new sensors. Your current ones are only on/off, not analog. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

I’m going to guess you haven’t used google map overlays. That’s OK. We have, and they are very helpful. In fact, openCPN, with google overlays is used by quite a few cruisers in the South Pacific, whe

We used OpenCPN extensively on our previous boat. Even though there are no depth numbers on a google overlay, it is easy to see depth differences in the color of the water, and in many instances, a go

It works, even if you fill from a bucket, but if pressurized water, remember to remove it, as it will keep the pressure switch turned off. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Yes, ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Bill, my fw pump isn’t self priming. It’s easy to prime, but needs help if the lines go empty. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

If it’s anything like our 50, there is a lever on the pressure switch plumbed into the fresh water pump. Turn the breaker on, then lift the lever. The pump should start. This might or might not prime

We have the Ultra 45. Best anchor yet after owning a Rocha and Delta before that. And we did have the 42 kn squall at anchor and didn’t budge. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt A50/#27

Had them on my previous boat. Excellent! ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Fire Fly doesn’t care if stored at 50% SOC ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Thanks Bill, After I asked, I figured I’d man-up and search for myself. I found the exact page you posted. I guess it’s safe to run a bit higher pressure. The WM will shut off if the pressure goes too

SS chain has a lower WLL and is a bit more brittle than galvanized high test (G40) ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

Specs online are max pressure 69 bar/1000 psi. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt A50#27

Won’t running over 56-58 bar affect the membrane life? Off hand do you know the pressure range specs for the membrane? I run ours at the low end of the green, thinking I’m being safe. ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

From what I can tell, and the documentation is spares on this, we have a D3-110i-H Does that make any sense? ~~~⛵️~~~Matt

It’s a 2019 motor. “i “? ~~~⛵️~~~Matt
