Page 17: Batteries
10. Batteries There are 3 ways to recharge your batteries. Engines: The batteries will need to be recharged as often as you deplete them. Conserving power will result in less time needed for charging, so turn off systems that you are not using. Your batteries will charge when the engines are running at 1400rpms or more, whether sitting at a mooring or motoring to a destination. - Page 18 11. Anchoring & the windlass Setting your anchor: Preparation: • Establish a non verbal communication system from bow to stern, as with the noise of the engine and wind, verbal communication proves difficult. • Tie the dinghy painter close to the boat at the bow or amidships to avoid wrapping it around the prop.
- Page 19 Manual operation of the windlass If you lose power to your windlass, start the engine and give it some revs, to make sure you have not just got a low battery voltage. If you still have no power, you can operate the windlass manually. To drop the anchor, insert the windlass handle into the central hole on the top of the windlass.
