Before you raise any comment please note: As stated in the video this is not the completed installation. We have solar and other works to complete. It is not possible to include all the detail in in just 30 minutes of video! Part two will follow shortly. Part 2 here. https://youtu.be/xd2R3VjAjQw Having to stay in the UK for a few months we need to be sure the Camper van which is new to us is working and in tip top condition. The starter battery was old and needed to be changed and when we checked the house battery that was only holding 60% of capacity. We renewed the starter battery and upgraded the house battery to lithium as it was a Black Friday deal we got a bargain 200Ah/2560Wh LiFePO4 battery. Adding a BM712 from Victron and a 1230/12/20 Victron smart charger means we have a great setup with only the solar to add. Here is what we did to the van and yes it was freezing cold!!

With Nico Lunven finishing sixth on Friday evening Vendée Globe, Thomas Ruyant, Justine Mettraux and Sam Goodchild all finished on Saturday. We bring you finish highlights and dockside comments from Nico, Justine and Sam. On the water we bring you updates from Boris Herrmann as he prepares for a massive North Atlantic storm, Jingkun Xu who has to climb the mast, and Conrad Colman who plugs a leak. We then look at the Tracker, Leaderboard and PredictWind routing options for Sam Davies as she makes her way north into the huge storm, which looks set to throw winds of over 50 knots across the Bay of Biscay. We conclude with an update from Kojiro Shiraishi as he approaches the Equator. #vg2024 #imoca #vendeeglobe #sailing

In this video we take a deep dive into the Highfield 560 Sport and discuss how for some people this could be the boat that does everything for you. Toy behind your 4X4, keep at your dock or use as a tender this aluminium hull RIB is a solid little thing that really punches above her weight in many different situations. From mounting your fishing gear to ferrying passengers to and from shore this design seems to work well in a range of conditions considering her size and you could argue that the return on investment or the FUN per litre of petrol you get on this thing is quite high! It was a challenge dlying my drone on such a small boat but i enjoyed it so please jump in the comments if you want to see more boats in this size range as i'm particularly interested in what Highfield seem to be up to with their designs and quality control processes. Hope this helps you on your journey!

Are Force Outboard Motors Any Good? A Comprehensive Analysis Force outboard motors have a reputation that sparks curiosity and debate among boaters. Known for their affordability and simple design, these engines were once a popular choice for budget-conscious enthusiasts. But with their production ending in 1999 and their resale value lagging behind competitors, are they worth considering today? 00:42 - History & Background of Force Outboardrs ( who makes force outboard motors) 01:25 - Design, Technology, and Performance 02:12 - Force Outboardrs Reliability 03:13 - Cost and Resale Value 03:39 - Availability of Spare Parts 04:02 - Who Should Consider a Force Motor? 04:53 - Conclusion In this video, we dive deep into the history, design, technology, and performance of Force outboards. From their origins in the 1960s under Chrysler Marine to their eventual rebranding by US Marine and integration into Mercury Marine, we trace the evolution of these motors and what sets them apart. We'll discuss their reliability, cost, availability of spare parts, and who might benefit from owning one. While some see Force motors as outdated and unreliable, others swear by their durability—provided they’re maintained properly. With a focus on affordability, these engines offered simplicity that appealed to DIY enthusiasts. However, their performance and efficiency often fell short compared to more modern brands. Are Force outboards a hidden gem or a risky investment? That depends on your needs, budget, and willingness to perform regular maintenance. Join us as we explore whether Force outboards deserve their mixed reputation. Have experience with a Force outboard? Share your story in the comments! Your insights can guide others as they decide whether these motors are a bargain or a headache. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell for more in-depth analyses.

Your next chapter starts today. Get 10% off your first month of BetterHelp online therapy: https://betterhelp.com/Atticus. (Sponsored by BetterHelp) For the past 12 weeks we’ve travelled hundreds of miles across 4 states and visited a dozen small mountain towns in search of the ideal place to build our mountain homestead. And this week we finally reveal where in this beautiful part of the country, we’re going to call home. But that’s only the beginning because we’ve still got to find and buy our dream property. And with Desiree’s due date right around the corner, we need to act fast. So this week we tour a bunch of potential properties and we find one in particular that we really fall in love with. And we see if we can find a property within our budget or if we’ll have to go back to square one.
