[Rhodes22-list] Quick question on hatch and pop top enclosure

[KUHN, LELAND]

Charlie,

1.  You wouldn't believe what the Admiral doesn't allow at home.
2.  I think you just solved my electrical problem.

couple of questions Lee....
1. What does the Admiral not allow at home? Splashing? Hatches??????
2. If you only had one solar panel the weight difference might make the
boat tip over??? are you certain??? I would have thought that it would
make the battery only charge while on a port tack ... or only half the
day while in harbor????
