    Induction cooktops are the future. They stay clean because they can't burn spills, they keep our kitchen at home cool and the galley cool because they don't radiate heat, and they are safe because stuff doesn't burn in contact with them. Thanks for this excellent video.

    Your battery story is wonderful. A song I hear over and over again. Good for you‼️✌️✨. Having owned a 7.5 Kw system on our home, we did discover that regular cleaning on the solar panels and having them raised up a bit, allowed them to perform better than their rating. A fresh water rinse is essential.
    .
    Emma, you look fabulous ‼️ Happy for you. Make sure to wear the retainers diligently. I did and made a great difference........long-term. 🙂.

    Love the helm hard top,yet curious you did not include a slider or clear portion to view sails. Know you always have a plan. ✌️👍✨ Great episode guys ✨ 💕 ✨ ✌️ ✨

    Linh, I love to cook too, but I am more of a BBQ guy, cooking on grills, smokers, cast Iron and Dutch Ovens, but the food you cook is always amazing. 👏
    Emma, you have the most beautiful smile, good thing you have awesome parents who take great care of you, and Compass, well, you are just the most awesome and cutest navigator in the world!

    Hello There, I love the channel and just wanted to let you know that I actually got to see your boat today. My wife and I were at the marina looking for a slip for our new boat and I happened to see a big old catamaran and I could see "basi" from behind the dinghy and I was like no way. I went down to the gate and I could see the name as big as day. Was not entirely sure until I could hear compass barking from inside. Your boat looks incredible and I hope that we can get ours looking even a fraction as good as your. Take care and fair seas.

    Teal, I think the lithium batteries were one of the best mods you have made to date. I didn't see your solar panels up yet, but I did see the frames for them, you must have them now since the batteries are fully charged each morning. Great job, can't wait to see you all out cruising the world. I have been waiting years for time.

  • @davidhendrie6935

    Great to see the new power plant up and running Teal. Been following this with interest, as I've started my own project to make my cat more 'off grid friendly'. I've found 2 x 200W panels that take up less space than my current 'roll out' (2.5m x 40cm)68W one. Really old tech! I'm sub'd to DIY Solar UA-cam channel and I'm going to do one of his builds, a 280Ah lithium battery using brand new Eve cells for around $650! That'll be the same size an half the weight of my 100Ah lead acid! We need a bit more oomph out of an inverter to get to 240V @ 50Hz over here, but I think 1KW will do me to charge my laptop and power tools.

    Elated the solar system is now more favorable to allow for a cook top for Lihn to expand her cooking. Emma you've always had a beautiful smile. Your teeth look great! I missed the 'lil fella. Where was Compass? High paws to Compass! I like that fan like thing you measured the wind speed with. I could have used one of those a few times here over the years. Especially when winds gusted up to 200mph on Grandfather Mountain, N.C., & my shed blew over all to pieces.(Grayson County, Va.) Or the day my porch roof blew off. The winds get strong out on this ridge. Have a good week! See you next week!

    Induction cooktop SAFE hand and body distance is 18 inches from cooktop because of the field it emits. I’m on an off grid system about the same size as yours and I went for the cast iron electric stove top, VERY SAFE to use and hasn’t changed my battery SOC because most cooking is during the day when the panels are producing. Please investigate and keep your invaluable cook Safe and healthy. Aloha, Jerry

  • @rickemmet1104

    The boat is looking fantastic! So now you can sail down to Southern California - but there's just one problem. Instead of sustained 30, gusting to 38 knots, you'll be experiencing sustained 7, gusting to 10 knots, oooh. And speaking of power, I have another project for Teal, fabricate a new prodder for the sailplan. Then you can fly a symmetrical, an asymmetrical, a screecher or a reacher for extra power in light airs. Hey, how hard could that be? LOL! And when you're in a marina you can set the prodder upright and out of the way. It's time for some fun, get out and do some cruising guys!

    We have 400 watts of solar and AGM batteries on our Gemini 105M and I use an induction hot plate for most of our cooking. I like cooking on gas too but have found induction to be great. You need the right pots and pans but they heat up quick and it is nice to save the propane for cloudy days or when I need the oven. I also like sleeping at anchor and find I wait all off season for those great deep sleeps I get at anchor. If I could only convince the dog to sleep in a bit.

    Going induction - cabin will stay cooler, much cooler. cooking will be faster / more controlled, when you get the new pots / pans get the kind with removable handles - then the pots will nest much better - handles store to the sides, there is an "induction pad" that can go between a pot and the hob so you could use NON-induction cookwear,
    A silicone cookie sheet (roll up) can go between the pot and the glass - it will not scratch, cleanup is very easy, and pots will not slide around with waves, heeling, tilting.
