SSL716 ~ Developments Onboard

[@UnstoppableMorgan]

You just made me feel so much better about replacing my RV’s kitchen with basic household appliances! I’ve been crossing my fingers that I didn’t make a mistake. Thanks for the episode! ❤

[@ivanjones-ud5dr]

Captain Rick you and Brian on SV Delos are probably to of the most knowledgeable cruisers out there, blessings to you and family .

[@MichaelRainey]

Add Distant Shores to the list. They've been doing it since they were a TV show.

[@Dwade689]

But delos is still a sailing channel this is a diy channel 😂

[@gregvaughn4286]

Thanks Captain Rick. So glad to have you back.

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

Thank you kindly!

[@karaDee2363]

I so appreciate your advice which I know comes from experience, not just sales talk. And I don't think anyone explains Technical Systems as clearly as you do and easy to understand without making my head spin. You're a great teacher So thank you Rick!

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

Thanks so much mate!

[@kimbojanbranyan6352]

Captain Rick you are a master mind. What a privilege and to be blessed that you share your knowledge with us. Your amazing.

[@bobmckenzie386]

Thank you for all your in site in your boat systems. The cost in CDN $ is quite a bit higher. glad to see you feeling so much better. From Kingston ON.

[@davidlevitz3119]

congrats on your recovery 👌

[@baldemarleal4387]

air cond with 12v electric compressor used in cars, trucks, vans, etc are awesome too.

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

Yes, but air conditioners based on 12V typically start around US$3000... no idea why...

[@baldemarleal4387]

Ebay kit around 500 dls

[@TammyBillings-qt1ve]

Thanks for the refrigeration as we have an issue with our fridge and will definitely look at this as an alternative.

Yer sounding good, Captain. Timely information for me as I am redoing all the systems on my A30.

[@SpareRoomSlotCars]

Good stuff, Captain Rick, I always learn something. Thanks for sharing

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

You bet!

[@jayschafer5385]

Thanks for the video. Very interesting and informative. Gives me ideas for our sailboat.

[@mronlyjeanshp]

Great tech talk captain . Love the channel .

[@christopherforster6555]

Well done great video you are liking well now and the voice is good happy days.

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

Thank you 😁

[@zzlee14]

That wine fridge needs some sort of latch to stop beers form taking flight in heavy weather . The same goes fore the potable fridge and all those battery banks . :)

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

The battery banks and the fridge are locked in place.. and the front doors of the new fridge have locks for just such an emergency.. an excellent feature! :)

yea,,ck out the bailigo ac 12 k..guy install ed on semitruck,,,also use 2 bougerv ref on 32'cabin cruiser w 4 180 watt solar w 230ah lithium,,seems to work well

[@Fundean]

Nice to have you back! Hoping you do a more in depth on the radio install… can you pull the radio up on the multi at the steering station?

[@Capt.sierra]

Great episode Bro

[@rickcreel3657]

I was working on a 230 ton York turbo package when the engineer wanted me to put a wet bulb thermometer open to the system. He was waiting until the temperature got down to 36 degrees F because water temperature is 36 degrees at a perfect vacuum. This got me thinking the compressor has to pump less than 15 pounds. Most refrigeration systems have to pump 100 to 200 pounds over the low side pressure to operate. Water is the best refrigerant as long as you don't try to freeze with the system. I have much more to say but it takes too long to cover the subject.

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

thanks for the input!

[@Dwade689]

You know I’ve seen people take old 737 jet fuselage and turn them into homes, since your not sailing much you should put some wheels on that boat and head to a trailer park. You would fit right in.

[@ericdelevinquiere9902]

Not just the price but the fact that marine systems have too many separate components and points of failures. Once you have the power available, it’s a no brainer!

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

And inverters have become much more efficient, more powerful, and much less expensive.. easy decision! :)

[@jimmarshall5453]

More kittens playing please? lol I'd also like to see 5 minutes of underwater drone video footage in 3 out of 5 videos. Can you imagine them following jumping dolphins if you slow the boat a little? Do you use air conditioning and dehumidifying in the cabin much?

[@clownworld-honk410]

I have a Dometic fridge freezer in my campervan. It's too noisy to leave on at night. Amazon have compressor free (silent) fridges for about 400 dollars. If the compressor is loud then it's not fit for purpose in a small RV / campervan. Powering them is one thing, the livability factor is another and just as critical.

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

Agree! And ours are so quiet that with 2 of them facing our cabin, we don't hear either one of them!

[@Spoon279]

What's the power consumption difference between running a 12v DC fridge versus a 110 AC fridge with an inverter?

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

Typically about 15-20% more efficient on the compressors, less about 5-6% efficiency loss from the inverter, plus a huge cost savings for the AC powered system compared to the DC powered system.

[@MalLaw-c2q]

Will be very interested Rick in your new Nav gear installation, i have a Jeanneau too:) a 2001 45.2 also with new Raymarine Axiom's and presently fitting Icom Radios. I did first consider the VHF M510E (AIS Version) as you have but changed the VHF for the M605EURO, a few reasons for the change but one reason was since i am getting the M804 MF/HF (which i see you have as well) i thought I'd get the VHF & SSB Pigeon Pair:)

[@claussvensson8670]

The prices you are mentioning for the refrigeration systems seems high compared to what you pay in south of Europe (Mediterranean ports)

[@erichyney6287]

Thanks, Rick.

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

You're welcome! :)

OMG Rick, how old is that Jigsaw he is using, i havent seen one that you screw tighten the blade in from at least 2000 lol

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

Don't know but it still works for me! Lol

[@JosephTabone-j4p]

[@Kathikas1]

Any chance you are in a position to give us some more background about the Walker Wingsail trimaran and the NZ connection?

[@P-J-W-777]

Congrats on the Recovery, glad to see all is going well and you’re doing better. Nice to see the Tech/Upgrade videos back as well.

[@Gardureth]

Could you at one point explain what they are and how they work? (Navi panels, radar, other weather/ocean info stuffs) You probably did, but my brain sometimes deletes good info. :) But explain it as if i'm on the boat, and youre leaving, and i need to sail her to another place. (Also great as instruction video for new crew)

[@gabrieldsailing108]

Some one reply from Patreon site on a message I sent you on a comment I put in your post on March 22 ? Was the Person typing you Captain Rick ?

Rick, will you ever take Sophisticated Lady back to the SE Caribbean?

[@bjornholmberg3208]

I was thinking lightning protection. A copper ball raised 1m above mast. And down heavy cable direct to sea. And outside cable an ordinary eaertfault swich...this could tripp an contactor both side battery bank. Sailorbear 64 in sweden. :)

[@dudeleboski2692]

Capt. Rick, how much solar do you possess?

[@outlawjjsmith]

How much does that unit run?

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

which unit? Most of the units have their prices listed in the videos when I'm talking about them

[@outlawjjsmith]

It was the BougeRV

[@aday1637]

What do you do with your dirty, washing machine water with detergent in it? Hope you're not dumping it in the environment.

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

we use environmentally friendly products to be sure.. but do you think that just because you are in a city that using detergents don't reach the ocean? Might want to research.... start with NYC discharge into the Hudson River and then we can talk. :)

[@dennisreeves632]

Bro, you are going to need a bigger boat.

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

I'm fine, but thanks for concern! ;)

You got simped 😂

no advertisement at all, it's called a product review.. but thanks for your comment! :)

Dude, you need a bigger boat...... ;-)

[@Dwade689]

Naw, just needs to repaint the water line a little higher

[@GMC75]

You made this channel anything but not saling . You turned incognito into an advertising channel. You would be able to advertise winter clothes for a few bucks. Be nice and tell us how many miles you did this year? What about last year? You do nothing but stay at anchor and leave only if bad weather is in your way. Fair winds "Captain"!!!!

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

@@GMC75 farewell!

[@GMC75]

The technical-commercial captain, surprise us and raise the anchor!!:))) aren't you curious to see another ocean? Come on, take courage and cross the Panama Canal. You can also advertise from Fiji or Thailand. avaro e pigro

[@beedonn9260]

Hi brick I'm gonna hit this episode just have to give you one solid thumbs down because this is just one advertisement after advertisement and it's just Commercial ad period I'm not going to tolerate that

[@SailingSophisticatedLady]

whatever makes you happy mate, but this is not a paid video in any way, just so you know.. this is my own reporting on gear that I find valuable to the cruising/sailing lifestyle and if that offends you... well, not much more I can say. :)

[@wadeprice67]

For me it's good info. Living on the water or land efficiency just makes good sense. In my 60s been on the water since 7 years old and every electric item you bring onboard there is always a concern of how much power it requires. And if people would start using efficient appliances at home everyone would be better off.

[@wadeprice67]

Ho and by the way I didn't know you had a name change . Capt Brick mighty mighty and letting it all hang out. But don't make a video with all of it hanging out.
