I’m looking for a decent charge controller for my 15W solar panel running to my

What should I be looking for? Will this one work well enough?

There appears to be three or more bundles of fibers (glass?) which follow the
contour of the hull from side to side - each one of the cross members rests on
one of these bundles and the keel bolts (as I remember) go through the bundles

HI Bev, I now have a dripless shaft, but in the past I have tweaked these.
It’s not complex. If you don’t need new packing you just tighten the gland to
