Interesting factoid: a quick google shows that post restante hasn't gone the way of telegrams and is still alive and well. Probably not so much used...

Sorry forgot some setps... After getting as close as poss to clean metal put on some phosphoric acid, available from wickes as grout film remover....

Dyneema is sized for creep, not maximum breaking load. Which could well be a downside for having loose secondary rigging made from dyneema, as...

A few thoughts.... Unless you have shot/sand blasted the area then you haven't removed all the rust, there will still be some in there. ...

Dunno just how accurate any graphs can be with batteries as there are so many variables, and determining state of charge from voltage alone isn't...

Nice post Old B :cool: I can't imagine not living aboard. So what else makes peeps go ohhh, yeah baby! Seeing the batteries fully charged...

So what size nylon does everyone use? Instead of using a mooring warp think I'll make up a dedicated snubber, prob 10mm @15m cleated off at the...

A graph..... http://www.arttec.net/Solar_Mower/4_Electrical/Battery%20Charging.pdf

What size bank? 2a load pulling the voltage down to 12.26v after just 2 hours sounds suspect, my 225Ah trojans take hours after sunset just to get...

I find a mobile app is just easier than using the gps plus uses less power. Though a lot of the time the Raspberry Pi will be left on all the time as...

Sounds odd, nothing on google about them being unreliable. I've had 5rs & 3rs for years with no problems. With the 5r it's worth getting the...

Bye big bad John. Think he posted as Gonad on here? Despite the sadness there are so many hilarious memories, he was one of the most colourful...

Those are great ham radios, living on the hook I have one tuned to ch16 & 72 turned on all the time. Illegal to transmit of course but very handy as...

I can still hear the rumble enough through a 10mm snubber to usually hear what's going on. Though it's not very common for the snubber to be set as...

Chain counters seem to involve a magnet in the gypsy and a sensor on deck. If I wanted to fit one to my windlass I'd need to drill a hole in the...

Just looking at the safety sheet for Boracol and it says not to use it on bees. Do people clean their bees? This will trouble me for the rest of...

I think my paste lost some characters along the way.. Try sending this to query@saildocs.com with blank subject.. send...

Doesn't say what's in it. Not, on reflection, that I'd have any ability to calculate how many times worse or better than patio magic it would be...

Sorry, I wasn't paying close enough attention :-). Unless I've stupidly skipped some other text the SeatalkHS hub in the original picture suggests...
