Thanks Bad. I did ask for a quote on Uship and the quotes I got were very expensive. Will keep looking for options.
Thanks
Tony

Re: Changing from Roller Furler to Camber Spar

Re: Battery Switch
It is common in the industry for House Bank to be Bank 1 and Engine Bank to be Bank 2. But I have had boats wired the other way and it makes no difference electrically.

Re: Battery Switch
Well it can depend on how many batteries are in each bank (and what kind they are). I have one flooded lead acid in my engine start bank (#2 on my boat) and 2 AGMs in my house bank (#1 on my boat). But yours may be different.

Re: Corrosion, zincs and bonding
Very interesting document. I know you had a lightening strike. I would be very interested in knowing the full extent of the damage as well as what protection you built in afterwards. I will search for subjects on the site to see if you already wrote all that up somewhere. Thanks Geoff
