One on left will do the 4 panels going on the rear arch. 2 smaller ones separate the port and starboard panels on the cockpit roof. . Love all the thought process behind my install. Constantly thinking about serviceability!

Single, Normal Woman - Turns out, they might not exist. 🦄🙃 But “Old Lisa” hit me with some wisdom: "Self-discipline is the highest form of self-love." So, I’m staying focused—on my health, my boat, and cruising… even if it’s solo. Meanwhile, my love life is still a nautical circus, but at least I might have a plan for next winter (hint: Bahamas, buddy boats, and possibly talking to seagulls). 🌊⚓ Read the latest blog here: #UnicornHunting #SailingSingle #OldLisaKnowsStuff . . . www.sailingyachtohana.com/blog/self-discipline
As most know, I’m not really that big of a drinker anymore, it’s just there’s nothing to do while they do the update but sit on the deck smoke cigars and drink watered down “beer.”

More junk arrived today! Now no need to putz and work around not having all of the components. Shown are: - two solar controllers for the portside, starboard side, solar’s on the Bimini. (A 3rd one I already have will handle all the solar going on the arch.) - 3 chargers that invert 50 hz to 60 hz shore power to charge the batteries. - a 3rd inverter so my system is not configured to just barely handle the loads on the boat… with 3 inverters I can handle any load I put on the system.
I mean it is an IPA and it is day time! . Todays projects done!! I can rest a bit: - removed old AGM batteries. - bailed out dink from rain. - tightened fishing rod holder. - cleaned/cut/stored bilge hose. - cleaned cockpit locker floor. - washed dow

Installing the auto transformer I pulled out the manual bilge pump hosing… IT WAS 80 FREAKING FEET LONG! . Cut it in ½! So much easier to store the smaller roll of hosing. Going down in port sugar scoop.

So the hose to the propane tank was getting dry rotted and I think it had a a small leak. So I replaced it . Went on Amazon, found a hose w/diameter of the connection I had. Figured that was it. After installing it, we found very low flow of propane.

After installing it, we found very low flow of propane. After researching, I found another short hose. The description EXACTLY the same, but it didn’t have that valve inside the fitting. . Just when I think I’ve learned all the systems on this boat I found another system I had to learn!

Wind is finally died down, and it’s warm enough and Joe is working well as a replacement “Dink Captain.” Tomorrow, the wind changes direction from the south and then it will be nice and warm!
