Minor update...

We have a charging issue. I have to do more investigation, but something's
not quite kosher between the start and house batteries.

Or, we may simply have a dead (despite only 14 months old) start battery
cell, as it's not nearly up to voltage.

I'm going to wait until I get in a bit more settled water before digging
into it; after I figure out what's going on with the charging circuit(s)
I'll do the other checks suggested in the thread. Included in them will be
stress tests, as I have one of those tools, to see how the various batteries
(4xL16HC, plus two large start for the engine and windlass) do.

More,

L8R :{))

"Believe me, my young friend, there is *nothing*-absolutely nothing-half so
much worth doing as simply messing, messing-about-in-boats; messing about in
boats-or *with* boats.
In or out of 'em, it doesn't matter. Nothing seems really to matter, that's
the charm of it.
Whether you get away, or whether you don't; whether you arrive at your
destination or whether you reach somewhere else, or whether you never get
anywhere at all, you're always busy, and you never do anything in
particular; and when you've done it there's always something else to do, and
you can do it if you like, but you'd much better not."
