    Rate my electrical panel

    It was always near the DC. It was an add on panel not factory.

    Rate my electrical panel

    It was a long winter I made all the parts bus bars panel fronts and the plastic over the AC also the furniture that every thing mounted into. It was a fun project I already had the tools so it only cost me for the raw materials and a little bit of powder coating. I almost didn't get it powder...

    Mystery Mast Bonding in E35-2

    I grounded my mast shrouds and rudder stock to a 12X12 copper plate on my hull I also grounded the life lines and pulpits. I then grounded all the thru hulls to the plate as well. I hate lighting now! I am in fresh water so the plate should be twice as big but I have plans of going south.

    Ericson 26 - Performance in light winds?

    I'm on Lake Michigan and its always light in the summer, the boat does well in light air. I will say it has a lot to do with the bottom and how good your sail are. clean bottom and fresh sails you won't be disappointed.
