  1. It's not that difficult or vastly expensive to spec an engine with big alternators. The picture below is of a recent install of mine with a lithium bank being happily and safety charged at 5.8kw off a 110hp engine with 2x large frame alternators. The Alternator setup including electronics and my time was just over $1 a watt. This was excluding a mount bracket that needed to be made. Totally agree with Islandtime about the comparison with lead carbon, and ill add that lead carbon have pretty bad voltage sag under high load draw in my experience.
  2. It might be helpful to let us know where the boat is?
  3. Active ingredient in wet and forget is benzalkonium chloride, also found in the cheapest disinfectant in pak n save at a similar concentration minus the surfactants.
  4. They rented a small flat in whangarei for a while, and believe they were fixing the boat. But I'm not sure what happened in the end.
  5. This website is pretty sharp for pricing. https://www.parts4engines.com/volvo-penta-d2-40-stainless-steel-exhaust-outlet-kit/
  6. A wool bale needle might be a perfect size for what you are wanting.
  7. I think they use heat set glues for TPU. I would ask Seafarer Inflatables if you can do this, they make TPU inflatables and Auckland based.
  8. Looks really good. What rollers did you use?
  9. Does the headliner come off?
  10. Farrell bearings in Hamilton are pretty on to it crowd.
  11. I have a Samsung active tab 3 and it's GPS works perfectly fine without a connection to the internet.
  12. You can put water in ethanol based petrol, and then water and alcohol will then separate from the petrol base and settle. Then all you have to do it drain it away and you have pure petrol.

    Drop In Lithiums

    I would be very surprised if your existing gear can be programmed to suit carbon foam batteries, and then not be programed or made to work with lithium. Carbon Foam batteries do not share the same bulk, absorption, float voltages with any of the other LA batts. What brand Carbon Foam are you looking at?
