    I am missing something here , there was a back stay broken. Then there is a reef , so the back stay broke could the boat not carry on sailing , could it not be fixed ,jerry fixed folded in half ,lashed the New a rope , to the fitting , then a reef turns up did they drift onto the reef with no power , sail , no motor , if the back stay broke It would had at the ends , if it broke at the top , so turn out around , if it broke at the. Bottom fold it in half , lash it and tie it to the fitting as a temp fix , maby ,

    Back on the Marina thing. Some are being offered very cheep , I herd a guy just rented one for $350 a month and a friend who arrived up here a week ago , has 10.6 for $420 month so things are slipping back almost to reality ,again

    That's if they are end on , I have bolted two together so I have 1200 x1200 on a frame and that forms another dry area at the back of the cockpit

    You could form a roof of a dog house with panels , or have Flexi panels made

    apart from the propulsion thing there is living power , we find cruising Leave Marina 100/. Percent , 300 amps two 80 watt solar panels , day one ok , day three power settles at 80 percent and stays there , run engine each day helps , usually after a week the power in storage is average is 80 percent , radio , fridge , lights at night , vhf , and occasionally at night the DVD video , this power has to be put on top Of an electric motor and its battery's so it gets complicated. Many battery's. House ,engine , it goes on

    I kind of blame the government for not after all these years settling this scrap with Maori ,they owned nothing apron arrival they said they were here first they don't know nor do we but they say they owned the land but don't have document then to prove it only sayso ,correct

    Black panther you would have to be joking going electric with all the solar gear needed to power what one uses the boat would start looking like a space ship with panels every where
  15. Myjane
    Agree

    Battery will get better as time goes buy , but for now they are still developing with lipo etc , with every plus electric motor there is two minuses. Fire , explosion , all thoes are highly related to these type of battery's for marine electric motors , solar panels take up to much room , boats get left sitting to long , battery's don't like salt water , connector don't like salt water , electric motors internals do t like salt water , and these lips cell battery from my usage get very hot , when one gives up it usually explodes Masses amounts of smoke , then fire , the amount of smoke woul

    Wasn't ted bacon on ngataki as crew I and ended up being let off on the island , must dig the book out again. I managed to get a signed copy from the little old book shop on waiheke in 1999 at the top of the town ,now it's a mall or sorts , and many many other old sailing books as well the guy who owned the shop used to save them for me weakly while I was working there
