| Norcalsailing report featuring Summer Palace:
http://www.norcalsailing.com/entries/2012/06/05/ditchrun2.html#.T-iWoI2Mfqs Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28. "My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton. My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell. So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!! Drew Scott Papillon (most of the time)" |

It's been great and as an AGM battery there is minimal leakage worries when we are on out ear
Also being AGM I can run them down and not worry about lifespan issues
:: I also use a motorcycle battery from Sears, works great
:: and lasts quite awhile even with occasional night use
:: using running lights.

:: :: I'm not an electrical expert, I use two garden tractor
:: :: size 12 v batteries- 5"x7"x6"high. I assume to get
:: :: lighter I could use one smaller battery- What size and
:: :: spec does any one use just to run speed/depth instuments
:: :: for the day
