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 if Lagoon used copper or alum cable?

The reason the 4300 doesn't have motor battery banks, is the fact that your would need 20 batteries per bank to achieve the running voltage of 240 Volts
(20 batts X 12V = 240 Volts wired in series)....

POTA

Well said, I could not agree more (the 4300's genset will be running almost all the time, whether motoring or at anchor), but I can see where Tony got his bad impression of batteries,...

Yeah, right. You're down in a trench lying ahull, when suddenly a 30'-40' monster wave breaks right over you. Should the phrase, " and the wave came crashing down" be changed to "and the wave came...

Does anybody know what type of glass Lagoon uses for its door and windows?

Tony,

What value did Glacier Bay finally decide on for their DC voltage, is it over 200 volts? Also does your boat have an inverter to convert the DC voltage to usable AC current.

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.

What about unfurling your genoa on one side and unfurling your gennaker or screatcher on the other side and poling them both out.
