Hello, Listers, I want to add a solar panel to keep my batteries more fully charged. But on a 30 ft. C&C, space is somewhat limited. For starting out, I want the smallest panel possible for battery maintenance, but I'd beef up the wiring to handle future power demands. My house battery bank is 12

Good advice Fred but sometimes the costs add up but i agree there is no need to remove the mast for winter storage on the hard so fix everything while you got it out. Alianna’s mast has been in year round for many years and no problems. Light Bulbs dont last forever nor do the connections. I need

If you’re going to have the mast down, definitely replace the antenna and antenna cable. And if you can, replace ALL of the mast wiring, and switch to LED for your nav lights (steaming, anchor, masthead tri-color) and deck lights. These guys have nice stuff for LED lighting: www.marinebeam.com

Good idea. No one wants that smile. I think what you (dennis) wrote up was very helpful and it worked great for me. Anyone with “smile” issues on a C&C yacht that they want to fix can follow that procedure and end up with a smile on their face instead of at the keel/hull joint. Very beneficial and

Dennis, I take some issue with the problem normally being toque on the bolts . . . I believe the biggest reason is there is a plastic boat sump (which distorts slightly) up against a solid cast lead blob which does Not distort at all. We chased that problem for years and minimized it, but a fiberg
