Well finally with some help, I drug out the chain hoist frame and welded it back together on friday morning and then on monday afternoon we took the van and pulled up upright.. there are still two welds to do and it needs to be painted around the welds and where we ground the paint off for the welders ground connnection but it is basically ready to go into use.. here are some pictures of welding it up and pulling it upright Well I took my battery back in monday to west marine and they put a tester on it and then exchanged it out for another battery. They didn’t have any group 27 gells in stock so gave me a group 27 AGM battery. I got 13 dollars in change back as the AGM batterys are cheaper than the Gel batterys now. The GEL was 87 amp hours while the AGM is 92 amp hours.. So I got about a 5 amp hour upgrade. The downside is that AGMS do not last as long as GEL batterys. I will be buying another Group 27 AGM to make a two battery bank on Sea Puppy. This will give me a much larger capacity and also some redundancy.. As I have already installed the cabling and connectors prior when I was rewiring the batterys to be on port instead of starboard it will just be a matter of hooking up the second battery. |
