New higher output engine alternator (50 amp.) for better battery charging on the water. All interior and exterior lighting replaced with LED fixtures and bulbs for low amps draw that better matches house battery capacity. Added a 600W AC inverter in the galley for small appliances. Added a semi-flexible solar panel on the sea-hood that keeps the house batteries topped up while on the mooring, between sailing days.
- Chartplotter is a 11" tablet loaded with a commercial marine navigation chartplotter software package, powered from the onboard 12VDC system. Mounts on the cabin roof for better helmsman view of the waters while sailing, and reduced steering compass deviation. Far less obtrusive and expensive than a pedestal-mounted chartplotter of the same screen size, easier to use, more versatile, and far lower power consumption while sailing and navigating. Two older and fully functioning Garmin handheld marine nav GPS's come with the boat and are still also extremely useful backup navigation tools.

- NOTE: If you intend to keep her in a slip rather than on a mooring there is a stainless steel standard marine 220VAC 30 amp. receptacle, feeding 120VAC outlets in the galley, head, and engine compartment. It needs the 30 amp cable. This connection will also heat the water heater, which is controlled by a switch in the galley. Use of marina-supplied pressurized freshwater as well would require adding a cabin or cockpit mounted hose connector, Y-valve, pressure regulator, and some plumbing to connect to the onboard freshwater system, bypassing the internal pressurizing pump and chamber. Hose included.
