haha happy to help man :) That electric setup seems pretty neat on long voyages where you'll have a ton of sunlight I imagine. Then when there's no solar just fire up the generator. Seems like a best of both worlds/ too good to be true.
Thank you again! Ya, there will be a few redundancies for power, not the least of which is Electric Yacht's regen capability where the spinning of the prop while you are sailing trickle feeds power to the batteries, which some people are solely reliant on! If you don't use many appliances and have lithium, that can be a very effective strategy.
The diesel tank was sitting on red metal tabs in the first opening. That’s now covered in Trex decking and filled with storage. The bolts on the motor mount primarily set the tension for the toothed belt. The radar is being replaced with a Vulcan 9” mfd, Halo 20 radar and new anemometer.
Test that Bondo resin on a scrap of foam to make sure it won't melt your foam. I think it's polyester not epoxy. Andy on Boat works today YT channel has a ton of great fiberglass videos .
So you have no motor at all? Well done! Was done for years before the invention of steam. But these days with crowded marinas, something light, low maint, not smelly, is handy just to get in/out. Love to hear how their dangerous?
Ignore people like this, imo. There are dozens of sailing channels that cruise the world full time that are either hybrid or full electric. I don't recall a single of of them regretting their decision to switch to electric nor a mention of any danger. Absurd and uninformed commenters...
So, you wish you had a boat eh? Some sailboats have auxiliary engines or motors. The ones that don’t aren’t inherently dangerous. Like every tool, some people learn how to use them, and some never will. That’s why of all the people on the planet, only a handful become sailors.
@@tomgibson9291 i wonder if you are making an argument for a different point, perhaps? The original poster said that going electric was dangerous (and also not real sailing whatever that means). I think most if not all agree that some form of motor is needed for marinas as you mentioned.

The radar is being replaced with a Vulcan 9” mfd, Halo 20 radar and new anemometer.
Great progress! Wow! If you haul out or if I meet you out there we'll have to do a follow up!
Test that Bondo resin on a scrap of foam to make sure it won't melt your foam. I think it's polyester not epoxy. Andy on Boat works today YT channel has a ton of great fiberglass videos .
Good shout, yes, now that you said that I will test to see if it melts the foam, the description on the can isn’t very helpful, I’ll do a test spot.

electric motors mean your not real cruising sailors ,they are a joke and dangerous
This is my new favorite comment, I totally forgot the Latin root for sailor means "one who uses diesel"
So you have no motor at all? Well done!
Was done for years before the invention of steam. But these days with crowded marinas, something light, low maint, not smelly, is handy just to get in/out.
Love to hear how their dangerous?
