Nope, Miyagi Moon is on the hard in Pangkor Malaysia, we have been stuck in UK since beginning of 2020. Malaysia will not allow us back yet. But even if we could get back there is nowhere to go as all countries are the same "LOCKED DOWN"

Evoiko Sea Center just north of Oropos, directly opposite Eretria. Family business run by a very nice gentleman named Dennis. We spent 2 winters there.

Vic, I know what I about to say is not associated with solar panels or their associated MPPT but many years ago I used my Charger / Inverter to equalised my Lead Acid batteries. When they eventually died I used it on the new batteries but the voltage would no longer get above 14.7v. I contacted...

Try William Walsh. http://www.walshsurveyor.com/ Although based in Athens he did ours on Aegina 2 year ago for 450 Euro.

They arrived late on 24th, checked in and moved to Kochi Marina on 25th. So thankfully all safe. Now the hard work of evaluating the problem, what needs to be done and finding somewhere in Cochin that can do the work.

As of Midday (UK Time) today he is some 45Nm from Cochin. Thank fully there is no wind and sea is flat calm. Fingers crossed.

The last update was that they were heading to Cochin with an ETA of around 23rd Dec. Right now I'm working on No News is good news. (Fingers crossed).
