Upgrading Electrical...


I got this photo from our friends on Synergy that they took on their camera phone- of us in the mixed couples race working against a local J-29 that is extremely competative all along the east coast. They corrected over us because of the difference of our starting times, but we had kept in front of them for about 4 miles or so and this shot was us finishing in front of them. Just a cool thing to let us know that we are working in the right direction, and I'm guessing he didn't have 60 gallons of water or his grill on board:^) Not often you get a photo of your boat in front of this one at a finish...

Upcoming projects and events are getting scheduled: First, I'm upgrading the Alternator with a Balmar 621 series 80 amp and a 3 stage regulator to help our new batteries out. Along with that is the replacement of the tachometer that hasn't worked for a while.
We're going to do the Jack-Ass Regatta fun race on Wed (13th), then the Capt (my wife) is planning to race Sequoia in the club's annual fall women's series that next weekend (getting either a short haul bottom clean or a nice dive cleaning for this event), then we're going to Oxford to cheer on the above J-29 at their North American Championships http://www.j29class.net/index.htm.
I've gotten some nice compliments lately about this site, I appreciate it.
