      @thewanderinghillbilly  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Great question. I’ve developed a combo of folk-country-rock and pop by using my past history of selecting. It generates a “playlist” if you will and it’s pretty darn accurate for me. The real secret is HOW you use it. That gets lost on many editors. Thanks for watching

    @kevinlobisser1186 ปีที่แล้ว

    Your videos are really great! I was wondering how you handle your electricity needs on your over nights. Do you run your generator or use inverter system?

    • @GrahamSwan-yi5gw
      @GrahamSwan-yi5gw ปีที่แล้ว

      G’day Kevin - we also have an Aquila 54 and at night we turn the generator off so the fridges, anchor light, courtesy lights and water pumps from night usage of the toilet run off the house batteries. We find that we use around 18% even with boiling the kettle for the morning cuppa. If staying at anchor we then start the generator and after a couple of hours the batteries are at 100%. Alternatively if we are heading off on a cruise the engines soon have the batteries recharged - just takes a bit longer. Will be interested in Alan’s response.

    • @thewanderinghillbilly
      @thewanderinghillbilly  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That depends. If the majority of the guests aboard want/need the air conditioning, we keep it on all night…which is usually the case. On more mild evenings, we do the same. Shut it down and recharge in the morning. It’s very nice to be on the hook without the Jenny running all night.
