  2. It's not really measurable by us mere mortals. You'd need calibrated laboratory grade equipment to be able to measure the actual power used. The issue is the sampling rate across the shunt resistor. It simply can't read the voltages fast enough to account for the coulombs used during the inrush phase. I have been running our anchor winch off the Lithium-ion, (through the MOSFET BMS), for a long time now with no problems. It's a 1000W/124A motor per the Maxwell label. I observe the shunt meter reading at around 120A, but that's just spinning the winch in the marina with no weight

  3. For interest Titus Canby is racing in the classics during the squadron winter series this year too , and some of the crew are classics as well!

  4. Yeah, still a fair bit of the mahogany timber had to be removed - partly why I put it off so long! Tried to get it out in as few pieces as I could, as I intend to reuse it... The counter top had to be demolished, so a new one to come, of course that won't match the sink top exactly, nor the heads benchtops. I'm sure the Admiral will want those done as well so they match again...

  5. Following with interest, we have the same situation where the engine driven system is at end of life like many must be now. 44 years old, the copper lines are corroded, ongoing expensive repairs including hoses and rebuilt compressor and finally the last straw needing yet another re-gas and drier. We are definitely going electric its just how we go about it with options ranging from a cheap Jaycar box to an Ozefridge setup.

  6. Maybe, but we don't know. Despite widely circulating details of the individual and their home (distinctive boat they live on) across the media, there's been no indication as to why they are looking for her. Perhaps it's overdue parking tickets? Or anchoring in a banned anchoring area. The point I'm making is that sometimes people just want to be left alone. And, there is a great irony. Assuming the authorities do have concerns for her mental health and wellbeing, the irony being that it is damn near impossible to access mental health services in this country. Particularly f
