Can someone tell me about usable battery power

[davenrino]

My 120A alternator charges the start battery completely before charging the 2 house batteries. My 50A windlass is connected to the start battery as the windlass is only used with the engine running. I have 2 ipads with Navionics in waterproof cases to backup my Garmin chartplotter. One ipad is blue-toothed to my Bad Elf or Inreach while the other is charging below. As others have said, everything turned off except Blue-tooth on the ipad in use.

One thing I have to ask. Is your sailboat at Blaine Marina? There’s a neighbor of mine that I haven’t really met that has a similar name to yours on a sailboat.[/QUOTE]

I am “not yet” at Blaine. If I land a job at St Joseph then will head up there. Now at Shilshole.

I see and ty for the reply. Blaine is really friendly and laid back. I’ll miss the people and marina when I leave for Alaska next month.
