NB! the video just got done processing. It might not be available in HD/4K in your region yet. If that is the case check back in a few hours :)

It's been a brutal weekend! Who knew hooking out a tiny eight breaker AC panel could take an entire day ;) What surprised me the most was the fact that my entire body was sore the next day. Sadly the result of all that work didn't turn out as good as I had hoped but at least it's done :) 

Also in this video, I find out that a ring terminal can carry the weight of 8 seacoks, one anchor, a car tire and a bunch of chain. Impressive no? ;) 

I hope you guys have had an awesome weekend :)

Sail Life - Rewiring the AC, distribution panel & ring terminals - DIY sailboat refit

This weekend I got the distribution panel from Blue Sea hooked up. It took just about forever. An entire day in fact. Also in this video a look at fancy ring terminals with heat shrink and adhesive.

I think you AC wiring looks good but as you said - a bit more room would make it look even better. But we are talking about the last % of optimalisation - Your installation is already better than most production boats is delivered with.

Thank you so much Gerhard! :) I'm getting used to looking at it ;) The longer I look at it the more okay I am with it :)

Hi Mads - Robin here. Just a quick thought about the osmosis readings - I suspect you know this already, but couldn't for some reason let the thought rest without dropping a line. Here goes: are you also comparing the above waterline readings with the below waterline? Somewhere in the mists of time I remember reading about this and thought -" yeah. that makes sense." The idea being to get the above and below readings to be within ? 15%? of each other or something.
