HELLO PETER, THANKS FOR REPLYING. SORRY IF WE SOUND CONFUSING WE HAVE
ONLY HAD THE BOAT FOR A WEEK AND ARE NEW TO HAVING A POWER BOAT, OUR
PREVIOUS SAIL BOAT WAS VERY SIMPLE WITH FEW GADGETS =) THE PREVIOUS
OWNER DID NOT HAVE THE BOAT FOR VERY LONG, SO HE DOES NOT REALLY HAVE
MANY ANSWERS FOR US EITHER.

Another thought: if you have a hot water tank, leave it off - no point
wasting power keeping the water hot when you won;t be using it, and it
does consume a lot of power, and it won't be sensed by the Link 1000's
current sharing scheme.
