Thanks Dude,
I’m in
Maine right now preparing to move the Contessa 32 down to Galveston. You
east coast guys just won’t leave me alone with the
weather. Yeah, I know, it’s 65 at your place and not 101, but at
lease we don’t have a tropical storms through the area every week (yes we did a few years ago but it was weekly for only for a month or so.
Anyway, I think the
power plan for the Contessa is a large
AGM for the starter, charged by the
alternator and a
solar panel. A shore powered 40a smart
charger with a
lithium battery for the house and a
battery to battery
charger between the two.
I called Battle Born a week ago and they appear to be really busy. Since I’m good with my
current setup on the starter, I’ll probably just go piecemeal on the AC
lithium charger and the B2B.
This
boat originally had the AC socket installed in the
anchor locker about 25’ from the AC panel, so I’ll install a smart
plug in the
cockpit and shorten the run a bit.
Thanks,
Tom
