We take our time and deep-dive into the details of the Voyage 580, Top Secret. Four electric motors, the biggest solar array I've ever seen, a massive battery bank, and a million dollar investment, the boat is remarkable and so is the owner Rean Snyman, who along with friends and a couple laborers, completely rebuilt the boat in two years. It's an amazing boat. This is the kind of project I would take on if time and money were no object. I learned a lot talking to Rean about Top Secret. We get into the nitty-gritty in this walk through, talking details about carpentry, paint, gelcoat, wiring, A/C, electric drives from OceanVolt, sail handling, etc., etc. Prepare to geek out a bit on boats and systems! iTunes Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/under-the-sheets-with-the-okellys/id1470844381 Consulting: https://www.sailclarity.com/consulting Squarespace - 14 day free trial: https://squarespace.syuh.net/AvmDj Private Fb Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/475364229906600/ Products we use: https://www.amazon.com/shop/nickokelly ___ Nick's Books and Audiobooks: Get Her on Board is about getting that significant other to buy into this cruising nonsense.
