Episode 2 of the 2022 adventure.
I started to write this. Then realized I didn’t remember where I left off with the episode 1. So. I had to go to the blog site and find it. Now that my mind is refreshed, I shall begin.
We finished the week off by treating Sally’s sister heather and brother in Law Allan to pints at the Yacht club. We had the whole place to ourselves except for the Barman. Went home to dinner and an episode of Yellowstone. The week before Easter consisted of more cleaning, purchasing a new starter battery. Researching Lithium Batteries , Solar panels, controllers and cables. Getting the Life raft and epirb serviced and contacting a rigger. Life raft was picked up along with our inflatable vests, epirb didn’t need servicing so that saved a few pounds!
We ordered 3 Freedom 100 amp smart lithium batteries.Ouch! They are self servicing and can be adjusted and observed with an app on a cell phone. They can even turn themselves on and off and if it’s too cold they’ll warm themselves up!
Good Friday we treated heather and Allan to dinner at the Yacht club. Sally had a fish pie and the rest of us went for the Sea Bass and hollandaise. None of us could do dessert!
In between Saturday we went for drinks and sunset view at neighbors. ( cloudy and cold=no sunset) the drinks were good though. Then Olivia and Adam arrived so a couppple mo drinks and that was that.
Easter Sunday. All our carved in stone plans for the sunrise service in the Cathedral came to naught as we slept in! We did manage an egg hunt and grand lamb dinner with Charlie and Abby. Adam and Olivia, and Gerta.
Easter Monday was recovery day so nothing to report.
Wed. The batteries arrived at the club so we installed them and!!! Lights radios radar Ais sterio gpses all working! Two flashlights and one battery clock dead though.
If your starting battery is deep cycle and you have lithium batteries, how do they all charge?
