Live Aboard Sailing: The Rewards

"Don't think so. Have measured mine at 2.7 amps on start up . So know they are the same. The sheet in attachment might be wrong. They have exact same compressor so not sure why there would be any difference. Am sure there are some others here…"

"The Edgestar looks like a nice unit but uses more than twice as many amps as the Engel."

Profile Information

Profile Type:
Sailor
Homeport:
From Great Lakes
About Me:
Singlehanded cruiser/liveaboard nomadic wanderer. Work onboard the vessel to earn a living (I'm not retired or rich!) Am an ABYC cert. Marine Electrical Tech. & mechanic. Will also do commercial artwork & writing for magazines, mostly boating themed. For more cruising pics and to see artwork, website is at WWW.ARTOFFSHORE.COM

My "baby" is a Bayfield cutter, 31', yellow hull with Gozzard's trademark clipper ship's bow. Her name is Angel & have been with her for 10 years now and don't plan on changing that! I love her and of the boats I've sailed, she just fits me so well. Before her, sailed a trimaran, then a cruising catamaran. Started cruising life by crewing on friend's boats as a youth. (grew up on boats in a cruising family on water, so that is what's most comfortable)

The adventrues of s/v ANGEL (the singlehanded "girl" sailboat) and her companion cruising vessel, s/v DEFIANT (the singlehanded "boy" sailboat)- and lately, a mutual best friend Neil & s/v ASTRID, can be read in Southwinds Magazine or viewed online and freely downloaded from Southwindsmagazine.com

Other Angel and Defiant stories can be seen in past issues of Cruising World, SAIL, Latitudes and Attitudes and Good Old Boat magazines.
Current location:
Florida, Cape Sable
Destinations visited:
Mexico, to Panama, Caribbean, Great Lakes, Bahamas, Gulf coast areas - sticks to warm & tropical with lots of sightseeing and nature.
Looking to:
Keep on cruising
Below are a few photos from cruising over the years. My Bayfield, Angel, is shown below (the yellow boat).
