Understanding Marine Power Systems - Part 1

Описание: Do you find marine power systems confusing? Are you trying to determine if your boat has enough power to run the equipment you’d like to install? In Part 1 of this new video series, we take you aboard our new Southerly 480, Distant Shores III, and start with the basics to help you understand what is involved in setting up a marine power system for your own boat. Future episodes will include creating an electrical budget and incorporating solar power.)
