Re: Buying a Boat in Turkey

What is the agent cost you were referring too? Did you use a buyers agent? Isn’t that usually paid for by the seller?

Re: Trade Wind Sails BWR or Parasailor

Thanks for your feedback. When I inquired about the BWR, I was told it can be reefed and is not in or out only. I am going to double check as that is what a big selling feature for me.

Re: Converting Delco 28Si to external regulation

That’s looks great!

Why did you go with 24v vs 12v. Is their an advantage to 24v?

What size is your bank?

What amps are you getting while running?

Re: Converting Delco 28Si to external regulation

Thanks Rom. These fittings will hold the Relco 28si? I was under the impression that this alternator was larger than the stock alternator..

Trade Wind Sails BWR or Parasailor

Looking at trade wind sails for Hanse 508. Any preference? Safety?

More reviews on the Parasailor, not many on the BLue Water Runner.

Re: Converting Delco 28Si to external regulation

Disregard the above post. I found them. Didn’t realize it was large case. Anyone know if there is any off the shelf kits so I can install two of them on a 4JH80?

Re: LiFePO4 Batteries: Discussion Thread for Those Using Them as House Banks

No. If you call a Yanmar dealer they should be able to find it.

Re: LiFePO4 Batteries: Discussion Thread for Those Using Them as House Banks

Thanks for the response.

I thought Lithium batteries could be discharges and recharged between 90% and 10% with out much damage and could be cycled about 5000 times?

The amp draw of a small...

Re: Triskel power generation system on Distant Shores III

The advantage I see with the Triskel system is that once that batteries are done charging, it will reduce demand on the engine. I could be wrong, but I believe regular alternators put the same demand...
