Description for 1" Yankum shows MBS of 52,300lbs but the label on the rope shows MBS of 33,500 which is the same for most 1" double braid https://www.samsonrope.com/recreational-marine/super-strong https://www.samsonrope.com/chafe-protection

$150 for 1" x 30' with MBS of 32,000lbs - Might be offshore but it is coated which makes it easier to clean after use which will make it last 4X as long. https://tacticalrecoveryequipment.com/product/kinetic-recovery-rope-krr1/

Try a search for "double braided nylon". A rope shop will spice the eyes.

Thermostat is is programmed to 10:00pm-7:00am - 45F 7:00am - 8:30am 65F 8:30am- 5:00pm 50F 5:00pm - 8:00pm 60F 8:00pm -10:00pm 55F If we come back inside for lunch or having showers we bump the temp up. I just added thermometers (still need a readout) to both FW tanks. These I hope will...

In the fall I added a programmable thermostat. Makes a big difference in A/h the furnace uses.

I've been looking for satellite communication to add/replace a Montana 680. The Garmin 66i is appealing but I've a hard time convincing myself the $$$ are worth it to carry one device and the plans that don't suit heavy summer use and no use in winter. Today a dealer told me that Iridium has...

Sorry wasn't thinking.......should have asked how the GX was going to be connected.

I tried a dongle that was laying around and no go. Then tried to find ones that Victron recommended but found all were sold out for a year so I order the simple dongle. The signal from simple dongle was 40%@100'. Once connected the software updated. I've since upgraded to long range and the...

Apparently the Telecom likes pos ground.

Most of the time (if air conditioning isn't used) water vapor is moving from the inside (hot to cold) to outside so a vapor barrier goes on the inside of the wall. Like Joe917 said spray foam is best ..it is a vapor barrier and fills voids 100%. Best to use 1/2lb density in the roof in case...

Don't look flipped in the picture....but i just noticed.....is the jumper between the neg power post and the shunt 4/0 or 1/0? There is one more window you can add that will show the DC power consumption. Maine Menu - Settings - System Setup- scroll down to HAS DC SYSTEM - turn it on then...

Be easier installing an electric over hydraulic actuator. Below is a 1000psi pump. They make 1200psi and 1600psi acctuators but I'd be surprised if you need that much pressure. https://www.easternmarine.com/carlisle-hydrastar-brake-actuator-hba-10 If you can find a local service center for...

The inverter won't pass thru unless it is turned on. When there is 2 or more lugs on a terminal flipping the fist one upside down makes adding the next lugs easier.

WAFCO is crap

A great charger uses a battery temp sensor.

PD is better than WAFCO but still not a battery charger. Your solar controller is better than the PD. The manufacutre (Crown) of my batteries wants the Absorption at 14.5V and Equaliztion at 15.5V. Check the parameters you batteries require.

The OP did say that there will be trips once they get there which is why solar would be bennificail and from our experice a 2nd way of charging to back up the solar. Idling the truck or a cheap generator its the OP choice....but I'd be carrying a 2nd 12-36 offshore converter.

Let the solar panels charge the batteries while driving. If you need to charge the batteries more then use a generator or a set of jumper cables from the tow vehicle after you've parked. I agree with others 2x6V isn't enough. For one of our trailers I carried a 2nd set of 6V in the truck along...

Expanded polystyrene with a foil warp provides the best bang for the buck but it will hold water. Extuded polystyrene is what I use for flat surfaces.

We looked at 2019 Subarus then decided to buy (not under $20k) a 2020 Outback Ourdoors XT Reasons - 2.4 Turbo engine with 3000lb towing - Longer inside with the 2nd seats down for sleeping - Sporty look - Increased back seat leg room vs the 2019 OB - What we've found in the first 1000miles -...
