Ep 392 | Shunt DILEMMA and Why We Chose Our NEW BOAT

Join us for a relaxed, chatty episode where we unpack tech decisions, talk through our new boat and share what’s next for our cruising plans.

This episode is a long, chatty one. Magnus dives into the tech behind our battery system and the decisions we’ve made around the shunt wiring.

We also talk about the boat itself — why we chose her, what we were looking for and how she turned out to be the right fit.

A quick intro to the new Little Nutshell:

The Konsort Duo 29 is an 8.8 m motorsailer designed by John Laurent Giles in the UK. Westerly built 108 of them between 1985 and 1988.

We chat about our immediate plans, which are on hold because our solar panels still haven’t arrived. It’s very frustrating, as we can’t leave England to cross the North Sea until the solar system is fitted and running.

Hope you enjoy the episode.

Until next time,

Wendy and Magnus
