courageous 0 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Murphy's Law..When you need it it's never there..it's on the boat. The last few days of darkness have been a great reminder about self sufficiency...oh how I would have loved the 1200w inverter & solar array off the boat..along with the neat little battery op'd recirculating shower..That aside we didn't fair too bad..the 2.5kva gen kept the beer cold in the fridge, ran the TV and a raft of eco lamps, a it even managed to run the washing machine...but drew the line at running a dryer.. My next boat buy will be a 6kva beast that will run the lot..might have to get it with a whisper kit as even the custom silencer on the old gen set still required a bit of consideration for the somewhat envious neighbours. How did you fair?" Courageous" Link to post Share on other sites

Black Panther 1,586 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 yep, when we were living aboard a ta marina in San Francisco there was a small earthquake and a major power outage. It happened in the evening. We were totally unaware. Link to post Share on other sites
