He got that idea from dauntless watch his videos he's already done that

Love your videos, but please lose the background music when conversations/taking happening!

Love seeing your adventures, positivity and learning from your videos both in sailing experience and the build process! Great content. What AC unit did you decide for this system; does it also heat and dehumidify?

I didn't want to add my opinion to the brain trust so it did adversely affect the bell curve.

Hi Eli and John,

As usual, your video is super interesting and very informative. It's invaluable to share experiences like this, as it helps all of us to progress. A big thank you, and I hope you're doing well.
Best wishes from Switzerland,
Thomas

The boat build is coming along very nicely the build quality is top notch you cannot beat aluminum for its strength to weight ratio….well maybe carbon fiber but it’s to dam expensive. As for your battery situation 30kw is not enough that’s only 24kw per cycle. Take my advise and add the extra 100 kilos and go for 50kw which is 40kw per cycle. Trust me having that extra power per cycle will really help. That along with 2 X high output alternators you can’t go wrong and will have enough power for all your needs.

Thanks for providing the feed back this week John and Eli. On further thought about MY solution, I wish to update it so in future if you like my idea, you may actually consider it as I think it is worthwhile. So my idea is this: instead of the line from the dock I would have run out a second anchor chain affixed to the dock with say 10m of line coming back to the boat so you could adjust the tension if needed. All of this is on top of normal anchoring in the harbour and running rear lines to help stability, etc. The beauty of this new method is the chain stays on the bottom (in case boats chose to leave the harbour) and yet as the blows starts if there is any drag the anchor chain lifts and acts as a shock absorber and ultimate distance LIMITER. I totally understand your decision of course. As always your experience John wins out!

I was not quite sure what Rafaele was getting at with the design, except that he is able to tailor it to what you need on a daily basis, which is great. I was thinking that they maybe designing a water exchange unit that runs water up against the hull plates in a thin hidden reservoir low in the hulls that uses the lower temperature of the sea water to cool a sealed fresh water (system -low/no maintenance) needed for the air conditioners. Of course this would need a slightly different back up system for the tropics, but for most cruising locations it would be adequate cooling. This would also allow a normal air conditioning pump system to be used less as the natural freshwater heat exchange system would be used most of the time. it all comes at a cost and complexity of course, so you have to weight those considerations into the final choices. I'd certainly love to experience the final boat in operation to see just how well it all works in reality. I'm very envious of you both. LOL I know you'll really love your new boat. Till next week, Fair 's and following 's.

One of the most interesting air conditioning systems I’ve seen on a boat didn’t use sea water cooling. It was an aluminum boat. The boat used some of its double bottom space was as a heat exchanger. The pump pulled and returned fresh water to the tank after going through the chiller. The aluminum hull just radiated the heat out into the ocean.

It eliminated two openings in the hull and all the maintenance related to cleaning marine growth.
