Hi
We are over wintering in Lagos in the Algarve and currently preparing the boat so we can leave her for 2/3 months whilst we head back to the UK for Christmas and New Year etc.
One issue I have not decided on yet is to whether or not I should leave the boat connected to shore power or not.
In terms of batteries we 4 x 115amph in the domestic bank 1 x 100amph engine start and all sealed wet cell plus 1 x 90amph for the bow thruster. The charger/inverter is a Victron 12v/1600w/70a.
We have a Ampair 100 wind generator and 2 x 80w solar panels controlled by an MPPT controller
Any advice as to what we should do would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mark
