How to update electrical issues on our Catalina 22 sailboat
Ep. 27 ~ Transducer repair, battery switch installation, new electrical panel & plugging the bilge pump.
#catalina22
This week Donovan went to the marina without me while I stayed back and worked on more episodes. He had to move the transducer, which broke last week, he installed a battery switch and new electrical panel, plugged in the bilge pump, tried to save the boat from bird poo and I also snuck in there one more cabin table video I found after I published out table video 2 weeks ago. See below for links to products we used.
00:00 ~ Intro Electrical
00:20 ~ Removing broken transducer to move it to a different, safer location
01:31 ~ Switch to connect both batteries is HUGE
02:08 ~ Back to the cabin table
