No, it's called comfort. We are the same people on a boat as we are are at home. Our need to be fed and abide in a comfortable atmosphere are the same. We like to have hot water for coffee or tea, to defrost frozen food etc.


A microwave does that whether on a house or a boat.


Why swelter when you can be cool and comfortable in the cabin? An air conditioner provides that.

Some prefer electric to propane stoves because they obviate the need for a dangerous gas system.

I just don't understand why people have to equate modern day boating with yesterday's raw camping adventures in the backwoods.

We have moved on.

PS we have 2 televisions and could do with a third. On the bridge :-)

Also, may I add, that sort of gratuitous "advice" which is really judgemental and not in the least constructive, really adds nothing to forums where people seek, or share, information.

End of rant.

You might want to take a look over here>> Home

CF is, and has been mostly of the conservative types that like to squeeze as much out of a amp as possible.

You may want to consider a pto set- up, we use a similar set up driving (2) 100 amp alt. I am doing this off a Perkins 4-108

I thought about the PTO approach, but lack the room at the front of the engine. I would love to have hydraulic power for thruster and windlass. Ended up having to go electric.
