Air X Wind Generator $525 Great Condition

We have an Air X wind Generator that has been used for about 1 year.

It is complete and ready to install with properly soldered connections to about 23' of #8 Ancor duplex cable with ring terminals. 50a, 3 way switch is also included.

The blades were sanded very sharp (back edge only). Then, blades and nose cone were primed and painted with Awlgrip Cloud White paint. This has the effect of reducing blade noise by about 50% as well as giving them much longer longevity in the sun.

Rubber neck damper is also included.

Here are some pics:

Re: Air X Wind Generator $525 Great Condition

Will take the package to USPS tomorrow and send you the quote. They are least expensive for international shipping from my experience. Do not understand the "on site reply for shipping" - coild you clarify please.

Package weighs about 30 lbs, given that the cable is thick plus the protection in the box

Ps You have a nice boat...I always liked the way the Nordic sailed and were built...

Re: Air X Wind Generator $525 Great Condition

I thought my second reply was an email instead of the public (on site) reply. She is still going strong, hull # 2 and we started in may on what I believe is her first circumnavigation! Exciting! One question: why do you sell? To noisy? thanks, Arjan

Re: Air X Wind Generator $525 Great Condition

Hello Arjan, we are selling because we originally had two wind gens...then added 400W of solar so we found that we did not need both wind gens any more...in fact this one just sat there while we used the other infrequently.

I'll let you know Tuesday what the cheapest shipping cost is

Regards
Ovi

BTW, noise is much less of an issue after I sharpened the trailing edges of the blades and painted them. I also have a spare pair of blades (also Awlgripped white) for this generator if you are interested....
