  • In this video we start some much needed (or desired) electrical upgrades for Wild Rose to prepare her for taking down to the south coast next year.
    None of this equipment was free/donated/sponsored its all from my own pocket after I did my own research on what equipment I wanted.
    If you are a berth broker, or represent a marina or know of a berth available on the south cost ideally around Southampton area for a Sealine S43 please drop me a mail on youtube@davesboat.co.uk
    If you work for Raymarine and want to sponsor me since I spend a small fortune on your stuff anyway, same email above :)

      Thanks for sticking around. Feels like it was only yesterday I got SJ. The amount I've learnt is amazing and definitely cemented my enjoyment of boating but also frustration with the east coast and lack of services and facilities. At least now I know what I'm looking for

    cooll project!
    was your old AIS transceiver? I guess your new VHF is only a receiver, so to transmit AIS you would need then still another device.

    • @DavesBoat
      @DavesBoat  Рік тому +1

      Yes the old one was a full transceiver and the new one is receive only, I will.be fitting a stand alone (much cheaper) transmitter but not yet

    I am definitely trying to decide whether to move to Garmin, or upgrade to Axiom at present!

      i already had an older raymarine and older ray marine stuff so I just kinda stuck with that, garmin would probably have been better tbh to work with my watch but the ray marine stuff works really well so all good.

    Wow Dave. That a fair bit of work and I feel your pain. I did the Lowestoft to Southampton run in 12hrs but was super calm.. Just to give you a gauge of timing.. Cool trip though and I it's a must to drive down matey. Look forward to seeing you about

    • @DavesBoat
      @DavesBoat  Рік тому +2

      Yeah I figure rather than doing it in one run like that I may do wells first stop a couple of days then maybe Lowestoft then maybe Ramsgate before going round and coast hopping

      Sound like a plan forming there. It's just the break in weather gets harder the longer you spread it over.

    Are you thinking of leaving her down for the season next year Dave, or just a flying visit? I’m in Port Solent which is one of the best down here, be great to meet up

      I'd like to leave her down there for at least 2 seasons I think before I upgrade again and just get something small up here maybe a rib, I'd love an axopar but their vendors are terrible when it comes through to following through on a sale 🤣

      Just have to shop around unfortunately if I can't get exactly the part I get as close as I can and make it work or find something similar, britboatparts occasionally have some bits but no guarantee
