There is a LOT more to lithium than just buying one, the battery itself will
probably only be 50% of the cost involved.
When I go lithium the AGM battery will then be the engine start battery and the
current engine start battery will be removed. This is assuming my insurance

If you are primarily going dock to dock and don’t care about being anchored out

fine, you are only dealing with hours of no engine, not days.

If it helps, think of the inverter as a special kind of extension cord. It
passes power from Point A to Point B. It does not create or store power. It
needs to be bigger than the expected load put on it.
The batteries need to be up to the task, but they do not create any power, they
store it.

Why not just get a solar panel and some AGM batteries? Lithium requires new
charger, AGM profile for charging is often available on legacy chargers.

To add to my fun it was about sunset and my batteries are about shot. I had 16
miles to go and didn’t want run on battery power, so digging through my spare
belts it turns out they were all too short ☹ I had to swap alternators back to
the one that uses the shorter belts, so a 10 minute job
No Atomic 4s have air filters, just flame arresters.

Also do I dare take them apart for greasing? If a spring shoots overboard can I

I keep waiting for Progressive to get revealed as a huge scheme.
I was paying $700/yr. to Geico (nee BoatUS) for ONE boat and now I have all
three of my boats on Progressive with better coverage for $700/yr. They had no
issue with quoting a C 41 and I think their website states they go up to 50
Long ago we chartered Coquina a few times and quickly discovered no one treats
your boat like you do. I went to Maine to look at a C 40 I was thinking of
buying that had been in charter service. It was pretty obvious one charterer
hit a rock at full speed, at least here we have only mud.

I used gloss white "porch paint", which is designed to get wet, in the head and
on the bulkhead in front of the chart table on my boat. It has generally worked
well, but be warned teak is hard to paint over. I used primer and still had to
do several coats to make it look right. On the good side
I think I am going to use the sew-on cover again, the sock seems a little
involved. Last time I had a UV cover done it was $500 or so, inflation sucks. I
am going to ask around a few places. One thing that can bug you about an old

On paper the VMAX batteries look very good -actually a lot better than very
good.
I would be pretty surprised if they can actually do what they claim, but I
don’t know that they don’t. This brings up the main issue with these batteries,
many of them get quite erratic reviews. You might get a
