Rope around sail drive prop.

These are fixed blade Volvo sail drive props. They are not spun out. You can remove yours and compare. But- be really careful removing as you could lose a little collar sleeve, or the hex head bolt,...

Re: Options between Cape May & Cape Elizabeth

What cape Ann? If you passed Cape Ann in Massachusetts Cape May in New Jersey seems irrelevant- where are you?

Re: OC Tender Owners - would you buy again?

I’ve been on quite a few OC tenders and they are nice- but my complaints are they are much more tippy than a standard rib- not that they will go over, just very much side roll. And the proprietary...

Re: Tandem Anchoring

Good thread. We have a 40 ft catamaran with a 55 pound Rocna on an all-chain rode. When we have a storm coming, I have played with putting out a second anchor, a 55 pound Mantus, on its own rode...

Re: Alaskan Armchair Sailor

Re: Need help configuring Outback charger/mate/mppt to new ReLion Lithium batteries

We've been on the run for the last month, gone from Puerto Rico to Grenada. Along the way have gotten on top of this whole thing and the ReLion batteries have been flawless and we are always left...

Re: Trying To Get To Alaska

Cool, interesting that happened although I've seen Canadian customs officers who gave us a really hard time and others an easy one, and vice versa too.

Re: Need help configuring Outback charger/mate/mppt to new ReLion Lithium batteries

Re: Need help configuring Outback charger/mate/mppt to new ReLion Lithium batteries

We have three panels at 300w each, plus a wind generator. While working through this we are keeping our usage way down from what we did with 6 year old agms. I will try the lower settings today even...

Re: Need help configuring Outback charger/mate/mppt to new ReLion Lithium batteries

Thanks Jon,
I have disabled the temp sensor and yes, understand about not charging that high. For now, that's the opposite problem as we can't get the charge above 13.2 V. I don't know what the...

Re: Need help configuring Outback charger/mate/mppt to new ReLion Lithium batteries

Yes I get the same problem! It's dark now so not sure what to tell you- I ordered a Victron bmv 700 monitor to help measure amps in/out as the Outback Mate is always showings the amps in/ amps out...

Just purchased two 300 amp hour batteries, which are connected in parallel on our catamaran. So far cannot convince the Outback system to charge them above 13.2 volts despite setting for absorb at...

Re: Is teaching boat skills on my boat illegal without a 6-pack?

Not sure about illegal, but it would be wrong to not provide at least a twelve pack. Hopefully IPA or something interesting.

Re: What would you do for a mast?

There are two Hunters on my dock here in Florida. I can walk out to verify, but I could swear I had seen joints in the masts recently, and assumed they were sleeved to begin with. If that's the case,...

Re: Plumbing with 5200?

Re: Plumbing with 5200?

After that you might try silicone before 5200, especially if you don't want to wait for the cure time. Either way you'd want to get all the tfe paste off before applying.
