We had an email from Kelly before Christmas advising Tim Tyler had almost finished fabricating the shell. Interestingly, we can’t be the only people who are curious about the situation as I received an email from Chris Wells on nb Belle enquiring about progress.
Well I made a couple of attempts to phone Tyler/Wilson from Australia late Monday evening our time. no success on the first attempt; probably because I had my time zones mixed up and it was too early in the morning. I managed to get through on the second attempt. Whilst I could hear the conversation quite clearly it was apparent the connection at the UK end was very poor. Consequentially we have not been able to obtain a progress report.
Chris has written about a problem with his Electrolux TravelPower unit in latest blog entry. We did consider including a similar unit in our own boat specification but in the end opted for a very large domestic battery bank and inverter. It remains to be seen if it was a wise decision. Notwithstanding this, I am confident the combination of the battery bank and inverter is more than capable of managing our 240v AC requirements.
I wonder how many of our regular readers noticed our blog address has changed. Yes, we have purchased (actually rented) a domain name and with a little help I’ve managed to link it to the blog. The next step is to migrate the blog across to our own website. Should be fun “stuffing” that up!
