Charlotte Wiggs said… - WOW! I hope that Ike keeps going away FROM you. 60 mph winds are very scary...let me re-phrase that: VERY, VERY scary. Stay safe and dry. Keep my fingers and toes crossed for you here in O Town.

Captain Bob said… - Sorry to hear that but you had some fun for a while, you live on the island side or the mainland side of the waterway. My sister lives on Atlantic in Daytona Beach Shores. But you have trees around so what out for flying limbs

Betty said… - I'm not at a marina right now - I don't even have a boat any more. I had to sell mine in 2007. Had a really great CT47 - but way too much to singlehand, too expensive, etc. I did find out that I was not a good singlehander after my partner left. I had the boat for over 7 years, 3 of which I singlehanded it. Unfortunately, I'm stranded on a sandbar at this point. At least I don't think my house can drag......

- Bob - guess that's why your cat never answered my cat. My furry friend is from Trinidad - she sure needed a home. We're waiting on your friend Fay to come visit us - I'm so glad she didn't get any stronger over water. BUT, she still has a chance up here when she hits the Atlantic and then comes back.

Thanks for the advice. I'll do exactly that."

Will Papke replied to Will Papke's discussion Electrical problem- need help fast!"Update: I checked my house bank batteries with a digital multimeter- battery 1 reads 13.3 volts, battery 2 reads 12.9. When I check the VDO it reads 10.7 for the main house bank. I turn on the charger and it runs for just a few minutes and turns off…"
Will Papke posted a discussionElectrical problem- need help fast!
I am leaving in 5 days on a two week sailing trip to the San Juan Islands and have just started having electrical problems! I am having a hard time figuring out what is going on.Problem: When on shore power I turn on the battery charger and when looking at the main battery voltage indicator on the VDO display, it does not increase like it used to telling me that the battery is being charged. I thought maybe it was a problem with the charger, but the bow thruster battery, and the engine battery…See More
