Gee, Richard; I’m speechless… :^) Thanks! Mark — Defender’s current public price on the EV-100 wheel pilot system is LESS than my dealer’s cost right now. I’m hoping that means that Raymarine is coming out with a newer (more powerful?) version, but don’t hold your breath. They’re pretty t

Stus-List Landfall 38 masthead sheaves

I just finished rewiring my mast over the weekend, upgrading with new LED nav lights from Marinebeam, along with new low-loss VHF and cell-repeater antenna cabling, and a Windex light and masthead wind transducer cable as well. While I was working at the masthead, I took a minute to inspect the

Re: Stus-List Ground loop?

I’m coming down on the side of a ground plate for LORAN, as somebody else mentioned. If it were my boat, I’d probably pull the plate at the next haul out and repair the holes in the hull. As far as a ground loop goes, they’re pretty common in audio and RF systems; I’m going to stick with audio

Chuck — I’m charging two Trojan T105 golf cart batteries in series with my stock alternator; the two batteries combined give a total of 225Ah of capacity, which is more than double what many Group 31 batteries are rated at. No problems at all. Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis (1979 C&C L

Re: Stus-List Solar charger selector switch

Just make sure to fuse the leads where they attach to the batteries; 1-amp ATO fuses should work just fine. And you really only need a single-pole double-throw (SPDT) switch, as you only need to switch the positive lead from the panel to the batteries. The negative sides of the two batteries s

Re: Stus-List LED Nav Lights

Bill — all the MarineBeam gear I’ve seen is top-notch; all their LED fixtures and lamp replacements have high-end constant-current drivers, which means they’ll take anywhere from 10-30VDC without any change in brightness (which protects them from damage if, say, your alternator regulator fails a
