ELECTRICAL
New complete rewire throughout - ALL electrics and cabling are brand new - tin lined marine grade cables throughout (interior and all mast electronics installed/replaced with new). The electrical work took 7 days total! With two marine electricians (Poole based - A J Hartnell) This was the major expense on the boat. It’s cost thousands to replace but it’s now like a new boat. All electrics and cables were ripped out (there were literally just a couple of old cables) every light (including up the mast) replaced with modern navigational LEDs including the anchor, stern and tri-light. New cables through the mast - also marine grade tin lined. So when I say a complete rewire - everything! . So everything below is brand new 2021 installed at the same time: Electronics box built bespoke for new systems. Gang rocker panel + switches for everything. New electrics board and box made bespoke. Battery indicators and voltmeter installed. Isolator switch. New solar panel system - Renogy (top brand). New renogy charge controller. 30amp PWM. Lots of room if you wish new panels to be added. The electricians have left some cables/tails to easily add more panels in future. It was designed to be future proof for upgrade in years to come. New inverter- 1200w. This is for getting 240v from the 12v solar and batteries. 240w power - 240v sockets installed - Can easily charge laptops or phones. USB points installed in cabin. Solar system - Renogy system with 100w panel (charges very fast - can add more panels easily, I don't think you'd need to) Shore power connection RCD/breaker box. 2 leisure batteries. 2x 110ah = plenty for this system. Battery charger (hardwired for shore power charging) LED strip lights inside (both sides). Run from back to front of port and starboard. Wave hand over sensor to power on - very smart! Manual controls also. Fully dimmable. Powerful deck LED bar spot lights - two rear floods and one very powerful flood bar light on the front (all controller from gang rocker panel).
