The real Martha R

Hi,

The first charter of the Martha R is only telling half the story, and
I mean 1/2, as the starboard side battery charger was not in operation
at all during his charter, thus the 5knot...

AW,

Another fact from the Onan site. Dry weight 870 lbs without sound shield, and 930 lbs. with sound sheild. The 420 comes with the sound sheild.

Did your friends at OSSA tell you that they...

Absolute Wind,

The info you received on the Onan generator in Miami was wrong. As per the Onan.com website you change your oil every 200 hours not 100 as you (they) stated. Also, that genset runs...

Does anybody know what type of glass Lagoon uses for its door and windows?
I hope at least tempered and laminated would be better.

Steve,

The short answer is no, but my last whisper date was Valentines days. I have an e-mail in to Nick with some further questions, and whether there would be demo sails after the Miami boat...

Charlie,

I too opted for only the gennaker rig and pole, and will have the sail constrtucted at Doyle Sails, right above TMM. How handy! He said they will measure for the sail once the boat...

Owners,

Mike,

I looked at the Waeco site(s) (many, and none were very good), and think the friges on the Lagoon 420 are model numbers RPD-0110U & PRD-0080U. I have attached pics of both friges. I found...

Whim,

I'm not sure where you got you numbers from at the Danfoss site. The BD80F's capacity is listed at 274 watts, and this would be 22.8 amps just for the compressor, not counting the blower...

Steve,

There would be no other reason to convert 72V to 12V, other than to help charge the house batts, which power the whole 12V system by themselves.

I just zoom in again on the 2 units that I though were 12V battery chargers, and they are really just 72V to 12V converters, this is not right, as Nick's new Elec Engine file, that he sent to us,...

I think the hot water heater is only about 10 gal., so you can maybe have 3 showers ready to go, but the heater will still come on and start to use energy before its first 10 gal is used up, thus the...

I think that the refrigerators and freezer are probably actually around 600 watts (that's 240 watts less than my 9000 BTU air conditioner), thus while running they would draw about 50 amps each as...

Steve,

As far as the 25 Amp rating is concerned, I can zoom in on my picture of the 2 units and clearly read the label. It reads ENAG CCDS2 72V-12V/25A, input 60 to 120Vdc, output 13.7Vdc/25A. ...
