Sailing things right

I didn't see a single human being in marina since Christmas, tho Heineken jars telling me that someone is having a very long celebration.

Another confusion: why I'm not allowed to smoke from the right hand and breathe out to the right but allowed the left side? Or, maybe, that's «don't smoke two cigs at once»? Any decent clues, pals?

Yup, that's winter. The whole day wasn't enough to recharge batteries, consumed only by the fridge and interior lights.

Sea-gypsie's little pleasure — delivering supplies from the supermarket will be much easier.

On my way to gain moar pawa I need to upgrade MPPTs. And new ones are freaking huge!
All these bulky things are screaming that I need to move to 24 or 48V system.

It was rainy

Two years ago. The first thing to replace on the boat, out of the long-long list which isn't completed even now.
But I'm working on it. :)

It was a little rainy past week, so I got some clean fresh free water in the dinghy. :)

By the way, cruisers lifehack: put the dinghy with the rainwater on the deck, put some washing thing and dirty clothes in it and go sailing.
In a few hours you get very clean clothes after a very gentle washing.

OMFG, this week ain't gonna be boring at all.

This panel may look the same, but that is the panel with the data from the database, where I'm collecting historical data, when the panel I've shown earlier is just a momentarily measurements, except „power gain per day“ which is an cumulative value over the day.

There will be a bunch of data collected, including all the sailing data like boat speed, course, location, wind speed and angles, and I'll be able to see the historical data for all my journeys with quite a precision.

Don't ask „why“ — it's just because I can. :)

New year greetings speech from the Great A'Tuin kingdom's almighty!

I'm a bit confused, not sure who's victorious on whom...

Here's my new electricity stats panel. :)

TIL: I need an alarm on shore power loss. :)

Belgrade, off-site meeting with colleagues. Filmed by my boss — yup, she is. :) That was fun.

3 years ago.

Winter is finally here.
Humidity levels are spiking and despite I'm doing my best keeping the boat warm and dry I have to buy a dehumidifier. Otherwise I'm risking the mold growth everywhere in the boat.

First sketch :)

New year night streets are definitely overcrowded.

That's sweet.

Fuckyeah moment

I'm really in need of other opinions.
What do you think?

Another long-long awaited project.
This a McArthur hat on my Pi.
This piece of hardware is an absolutely amazing thing: it allows connecting together systems that were never designed to communicate (mostly because of proprietary stuff).

Now I need to install operating system, some special software and do a lot of set-ups to make it work properly.

The ultimate goal is to have a complete display on any of my devices with map, weather, AIS data, along with the wind and speed instruments and, sure thing, the autopilot controls.

That will be just awesome!

PS: Victron data will go here too.

That's a huge leap in personalized marketing!

Just kidding. I'm looking for a dual-action fridge/freezer thing just to know what budget it would require to have one and found that. Almost two and a half boxes of beer!

These guys know the shit. :)
