Lucky, it was only the "easy to fix" keel job and not also the prop and rudder. New boat mistakes are likely to happen, and you quickly learn from them. Many years ago, with a new boat I dropped a complete saildrive leg on top of a rock in the middle of nowhere while fishing near the Mercury Islands, NZ. At least, I was able to reuse the propeller. Enjoy the trip north.

Finally someone does it right. Solar PV disconnects that are made to handle cutting the power off. See DC voltage as it gets higher creates a bigger arc curve(can jump far). Breakers do not work at all for this, has to be a disconnect with a large enough gap to handle an arc from DC. Great Job doing it right.

Fellow Kiwi enjoying the 'real' nature of the videos - keep it up! If you get a chance I would love to see the costs of the various upgrades and projects you have undertaken - maybe a video on what you did to equip the boat for off shore etc. These sort of videos age quickly so seeing something in 2024 $ would help us greatly.

One of the best designs I ever saw was having the washer and dryer up on the main level. None of this trying to get it below deck. The other thing in best design practice I saw on another boat was they kept a full size household refrigerator up on the main deck.

Makes a lot of sense having it all on the upper deck, also having washers and fridges on higher level allows for easy draining of waste or condensation.
