Crank up those amps

No, no, not the stereo!

The bloke has been in an absolute blather. The house batteries have been delivering too few amps. Hours of charging with both the motor and the Honda Genni and really we'd be better off running the Genni whenever we want a single amp for all the good the charging had done! And to think of all the noise interfering with the serenity. Voltage alarms under the bunk peeping away in the dead of night had the Bloke prowling around turning stuff off and both of us having disturbed sleep. Action was required.

On Sunday morning, despite having a lovely time out at The Group and plans to sail up to Tumby Bay, the state of charge , or lack of it, meant that our bow was pointing South to Port Lincoln Marina instead of NW to Tumby Bay - even before breakfast.

Make mine 240 volts and be quick about it!
