You will need to run your engine for 3 - 4 hours a day even if you're not moving just to re-charge them.<br />regards<br />YvonneYvonnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00706326534368548443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8849606427437002017.post-65831742817956600292012-10-15T18:16:03.561+11:002012-10-15T18:16:03.561+11:00Thank you all... aren't you just a fountain of...Thank you all... aren't you just a fountain of good advice.

The 'golden rule' is not to let ...Hi Elly,<br /><br />The 'golden rule' is not to let the battery level drop below 50% or you start to significantly reduce the life of the batteries. Unless it's a very large bank I doubt you will get another 2 days energy out of them and stay above 50%.<br />Regards<br />TomTom and Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11277996736846008000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8849606427437002017.post-77486351498569807312012-10-15T08:30:13.452+11:002012-10-15T08:30:13.452+11:00Ah now that would be the 'Shroppie Shelf' ...Ah now that would be the 'Shroppie Shelf' making you bump below the waterline.<br /><br />A lot of the Shroppie has this and it can be overcome.<br /><br />You can get some of those fenders that you can actually drop under the water between your boat and the shelf..<br /><br />http://www.mailspeedmarine.com/fenders-buoys/mailspeed-marine/narrowboat-fenders1739729.bhtml?utm_source=google&utm_medium=base&utm_campaign=Mailspeed%20Marine<br /><br />Or/and you can get some wheels like these we use..<br /><br />http://www.noproblem.org.uk/np_pics/nov09/008.jpg<br /><br />You can get them from screwfix here..<br /><br />http://www.screwfix.com/p/pneumatic-wheel-360mm-diameter/20600<br /><br />You will find you might need all sorts of bits and bobs in your first year!Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07911045617767626806noreply@blogger.com
