Ok, now I am worried
I have 5 group 27 wet cell batteries under my cabin sole. They are not
wented. And I live aboard full time with wife and 2 dogs. Am I living
dangerously ? I never smelled anything. What are the symptoms ?

Bob, on Pegasus I have a 4d (house 1) under the port q-berth, a pair of
6volts under the companion way (house 2) and a pair of group 24 for starting
and windlass on the shelf to port of the engine. This keeps all heavy battery
cables (except windlass) in short runs, lessens the voltage

I am no expert on this topic, however, I saw a similar repair this
season at our clubthe contractor was using an epoxy filler to fill
the missing volume.not a great deal of weight lost in the keel and a

in
That's a bummer.
Have you inspected the hull in front of the keel and in back? Tremendous forces
during a grounding can fracture the hull in ways which may barely be visible
but can cause delimitation etc. If the impact was enough to distort the lead it
may be well within your interests to hav

I was thinking the exact same thing regarding a windlass and the need for
starting if you split up the home bank leaving one bank(or just one battery)
aft for emergency starting.
As suggested, you should protect the wires at the battery, but rather than
adding breakers, I suggest using a bat

No, we are not too old to sail one of these new C&C 30 sport

If it will be very rare to ever need a v-berth house battery for engine
starting, how about, if the need were to arise, disconnect one of the
v-berth batteries, take it aft, and use some jumper cables to get the
engine started.

Actually there is a fairly complete test of a C&C33 mkII in their September
issue ( 5 pages, many pictures ). The boat's name is Sea Dancer.
At the end of the article there's an Editor's note: "This review is an updated
and expanded version of one previously published"

I think ABYC is a little to conservative on this issue if that is their stance.
"AGM's are advantageous anyplace where you need a reliable totally sealed
battery for safety or environmental reasons - wheelchairs, medical standby
power, inside RV's, computer room UPS systems, or
I'm not sure there was a single article about the 33-1. I think David's
boat was used as an experimental platform to try out different products.
Could be wrong. I recycled my old PS issues a few years ago.

Technically vapors are an issue. All battery types - wet/sealed/gel/AGM -
are subject to ABYC venting guidelines. There are some solutions - venting
the battery enclosure or having vented caps for wet cell directed overboard
somehow.

Bob — I would consider sizing the wiring aft from the forward batteries to
allow at least 100 amps, with a maximum 10% voltage drop. This would require
at least 4AWG cabling from under the v-berth to the electrical panel aft;
better would be 2AWG, which would allow you to pull 30 amps with a 3%
Bob,
as you said, the current from the house batteries should never be high, so the
wires should not be an issue. However, if you calculate your load at 30 A and
select appropriate gauge of the wire (for distance), make sure that you install
an appropriate fuse (probably not larger than 50 A) (

The attached video was included in a post from a sailing TV website this

the performance of the boats is impressive. Certainly not "us father's" C&C.
And pretty athletic for this fat old man. But impressive none the less.
