Well, I have to admire your narratives. One thing which always strikes
me is that you have more systems working aboard than I have ashore. I
was utterly unable to keep even a simpler and slightly smaller yacht's
systems working. In fact, I never got all systems working at the same
time. One was always down or weak.

I am curious about two things. First you say your PV panels were pumping
25 amps. That implies 300 watt capacity or more. Is that right? If so,
that strikes me as a lot of panel.

Second, how do you 'polish' a sea bean? That'd be like polishing green
beans or asparagus. What next - putting a shine on an artichoke?
