Baja California .. Sea of Cortez

Energy

After the solar panels (6 x solbian 125w) , we added a D400 windgenerator and a watt and see hydro generator 600 watts 

this is coming to charge the 1200 amp batterie bank ( 6x mastervolt agm slim 12/200) that are linked to a mastervolt 3000 watts inverter/charger 

Tenderlift extension

This is a great upgrade from Tenderlift that extend the size of the platform 

(Backup) Sailing in the breeze

Easy going sailing in 22-28 knots of breeze. one reef in the main and a 2/3 of the genoa.

Clapotis was sailing at 9-10 knots under Paul's control 

     

New pulpits

The 2017 Lagoon 450 received new stern pulpits which are safer. We retrofitted clapotis with those 

 

  

Solar panels

After spending a lot time to think about it, we finnaly moved on the solar panels project.

we installed 6 solara 125watts with individual controllers and a Phillipi monitoring system 

result is spectacular as we are now self sufficient as far as energy is concerned
