    Guys, you're talking switching from gas to electric batteries. Think twice! We just lost a couple in Canada. Their boat was with electric batteries. They were found dead in the dingy and no trace of the boat. Experts think that the batteries got on fire …not the first time batteries burn! Be careful with the conversion!

    I MADE A PROMISE TO VP KAMALA HARRIS AND GOV TIM WALZ TO SUPPORT THEIR RUN FOR THE WHITE HOUSE SO I ENCOURAGE ANYONE READING THIS TO VOTE FOR THEM ,
    THESE ARE GOOD DECENT PEOPLE WITH CHARACTER AND IN MY OPINION TRUMP AND COMPANY
    SIMPLY ARE NOT, FOR TOO MANY REASONS TO COUNT OR TO LIST . PROJECT 2025 A DISASTER ! ELIMINATING THE CONSTITUTION ? SHEAR MADNESS ! IGNORING GLOBAL WARMING WOULD JUST BE CRAZY ! CHOOSING CRUELTY OVER KINDNESS AND RESPECT
    NOT RESPONSIBLE .. DIVISION OVER UNITY ? NUTTY ! WOMENS REPRODUCTIVE CARE IS FOR THE WOMEN AND HER DOCTORS ,AND FAMILYS ,

    MAKE A GOOD CHOICE SUPPORT KAMALA HARRIS AND GOV TIM WALZ ,,

    THANKYOU KINDLY FOR YOUR CONSIDERATIONS !

    I don't wanna be a snitch or anything, but around 5:45 I really saw Loren go towards the Galley empty-handed, and as far as I know, one NEVER goes toward the galley empty-handed. Just saying..

    Good job bein' an extra set of eyes for the skipper Chickadoo.
    Reminding & handing him the board before he drilled, possibly
    averted a costly mistake.

    I always say that you can never have enough power. Have you thought about adding a wind turbine to help out on the cloudy days

    Be sure to get high speed steel drill bits. If you need to drill stainless you need cobalt drill bits and go slow when drilling stainless, i use a start stop method so as to not burn the tips of the cobalt bits.

    Why are you using a cutting board when you are drilling?

    The advantage of being tall. Well done.

    At 55 cents per watt mono cell type, delivered and available in the Caribbean, that is a good price for less than a pallet quantity. Great to hear panels are producing adequate power. Off grid off brand inverters /charger/ mppt controllers with ok quality are becoming more available. Recently saw one, SUMY, for 24v bat system that could handle 4000w PV at up to 450v, charge bats at 100 amps, put out 3600w 120v pure sine wave AC and take power from utility/generator for 310 bucks. How well/how long it would work in marine environment is a question. Weather-Seems St Martin just barely dodged the Aug 13 near hurricane storm.

    I’m stoked to see the solar getting upgraded because I want y’all to have plenty of power so you can jump on the computer at all hours and finish writing the second installment of the Sophie Danner series! I just finished listening to Ghosts of Royston and it completely blew me away Eric!Definitely the best novel I’ve read or listened to in a very long time (and I plow through 6 – 8 books a month). I’m ready for the next one!!

    Upgrades are always so satisfying to accomplish. Keep your day job😂

    I would have been down in the salon sleeping until the rain was gone. Where there is rain, there is a thunderstorm just waiting to fry your electronics or those that work out in them

    Congratulations on the upgrade and the success of getting it done so quickly.🥰
