Thanks for all the information, folks.
Jim, I have a 1975 CAL 2-29. I've purchased an Electric Yacht 180ibl. I took the old Westebeke out when it died last year. I explained to the marina last year that I was eventually going to replace the onboard, so the plug and patch they put in place of the prop should be easily removed. But it's still a cost.
The generator does sound like a good idea. As for the solar panels, I envisioned building a removable platform off the transom, if the size wasn't outrageous. Otherwise, there's plenty of foredeck if I don't have to be worried about them being stepped on.
If I do just get two more deep-cycles for now, will I need a different charger once I go for something better? What would you recommend in terms of a charger?
Anne
