The house batteries had died by the time we reached the mooring last week. So something had to be done.

Bought a Group 4D Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) Battery, 12V, 198 Amp Hours, 380 Res. Min., 1110 CCA, 1420 MCA, 10 1/8"H x 20 3/4"L x 8 1/2"W, 131 lb. from West Marine.

It was heavy!. Thankfully Calum and Yole had come for a sail so with Calum doing the heavy lifting we brought Azurro into the fuel dock and man-handled it into the space the original Bosch battery had filled. West Marine took the old core back for a credit. Left the other house battery unconnected for now. Want to see how this one works on its own.

Inaugural lunch at the Sail Locker & nice sunny sail around Apponagansett Bay.
