Post 12v Cooler/Freezer/Fridge


I have a similar one to this 53 quart version. The original was and still is marketed under the Alpicool name. This one is identical except it has a Vevor sticker on it. Even uses the Alpicool App to control it remotely. Good time to buy one before summer kicks in. Works very well and will freeze down to -20c if desired. We use ours more for additional fridge space but when vacationing on the boat we will turn it into a freezer. Had mine for 2 years now, no issues. Ours is plugged into 12vdc thr ...

Post Boat Canvas


Does anyone know of a place where they can make canvas enclosures based off of patterns they have from making covers previously?
We are replacing our aft cabin canvas on our 2807 Riviera.
Considering doing it ourselves but if anyone knows of a good place with patterns that would be cool.
Any advice?
Thanks, Pete

Post New 325 owner!


:captain:

Our 1998 325, maintained by 3 previous owners via the "open check book" method, shows beautifully and we have been enjoying her since July 2022.

We are now considering upgrading the aft deck with a fiberglass top (no top at all now), but not sure how to find one.

We're located in Portland at the Columbia River Yacht Club.

Post Inline Fuse from Batteries to DC Panel


Hi Everyone,



I arrived at my boat today and discovered that although i have AC power, I do not have DC. Inverter screen is telling me my batteries are in float charging mode and I've tested the batteries to confirm they are at +-13.4v.



Ive read numerous topics on this issue. Is there indeed an inline fuse from the battery selector switch to the DC panel? If so where exactly is it? Cannot find it in my search!



Next step is to remove sliding doors and test/replace the DC main switch unless you al ...

Post Swim platform water connection question...and pilings...


Did a search first...now asking here....

The water connection on the swim platform...355 Carver...Starboard side next to the storage locker...

If the water line is connected...does it also fill the hot water tank?

I'm thinking instead of filling the water tank....just connect the water line for use...does it also fill the water tank in the aft cabin below the bed?

Or...connecting the water hose...we will only have cold water and the water in the tank doesn't get used...



2nd question....

Already contac ...

Post Microwave Power Consumption


One tends to think a microwave uses little power. Here is a battery operated unit that puts it into perspective. It starts out by saying how it can heat up 11 lunches? Now this has a 40v 8ah portable tool battery (s) so that sounds pretty good right? Keep reading only to find out that on High output (500W) which is about 1/2 of your standard 120v unit sold today, it will only work for 4 minutes before the battery needs a recharge. If one looks at the video they show 2 batteries installed so I wi ...
