Updates on my equipment

Many have sent me advice and opinions about my battery set up, etc. So I thought I would clarify and summarize what it is that I now have.

I have 3 AGM Victron supercycle 160 A batteries (480 Amps altogether, sorry about the mansplaning). I charge these with 720 Watt solar. I also have a high output alternator, rated at 160 Amps with a ARCO Zues regulator. I am currently waiting for a multi control display. I also now have a Victron inverter/battery charger.

Other than running my fridge for 12 hours per day, Starlink for an hour a day, electronics while underway and a macerater once in a while, don’t have a large load, so I feel I have what I need. And thanks to a few people such as Kevin from “CatHarpin Blue” I’ve learned lots and have (he) fixed and tweaked some poorly installed electronics and battery set ups. I’m forever grateful for the learning that will help in the future and make my boat better!

Time for another coffee and a swim with dolphins and hopefully whale sharks, mantas and maybe even hammerheads…..
