A Nasty Surprise Aboard Our Boat… | S3 Ep 22

A Nasty Surprise Aboard Our Boat… ⚡ We thought everything was fine aboard our boat, until Timo made a worrying discovery during one of his routine visits. There was no voltage showing on the electrical system, and nothing onboard seemed to have any power. Had our boat been struck by lightning? After all, we'd recently been through some pretty spectacular storms. Or was something else going on? While we're temporarily living ashore in Langkawi, Malaysia, preparing for our next major refit, we still visit the boat several times a week to keep an eye on things. This time, however, a routine check turned into an unexpected electrical investigation. In this episode, Timo starts tracing the problem, checking the batteries and electrical system, investigating the alternators and trying to work out what has gone wrong. Join us as we try to get to the bottom of this unexpected problem aboard our Open 66 sailing boat! Thanks for watching and supporting Sailing NV.
