[Rhodes22-list] Thermoelectric cooler

Susan:
     I have a cell phone, but I try not to use it, because I hate connection.  I will bring it along and give you a call after ten. Maybe I can sail over to meet you at the transient pier or something. I've only had my boat for five years, so I am not an authority on the matter. I can tell you how to write a good page, though.

Joe,

I may be down on Wednesday as well.  Is there some way I can reach you?  My cell is 610-637-9660 although service is not great at Two Rivers.  The weather looks very promising.  Maybe you can answer some of my questions about my boat.

    Re. to a meet: I am not teaching this summer, so I have lots of time. I will be down there probably Wednesday.  I hate to plan ahead much as weather (and my energy levels) are not too dependable. We can work out something, I'm sure.  I am a dark blue hull.

Joe,

Thanks for the offer on help with naming.  I would love to meet one day and see your boat.  Thermoelectric coolers keep things cool about 35 to 40 degrees colder than the outside temp, which works just fine for beverages and such.  There is no need for ice.  I can get an adapter for the cooler which allows it to be plugged into shore power when I am not on the boat, which would save the batteries.  I was just wondering how the batteries would hold up if I am out all day, or maybe overnight with the cooler on battery power.

    This is Joe, right across the river from you at Long Point Marina. I've only used those coolers in my car(s) in the past.  I have no idea what the draw is on them.  Anyway, I don't think these units will keep ice for too long.  Maybe they are better now. I have a big one, bought in the 90s, and that technology was not suited for keeping things really cold.

I am getting my (1986/2000) Rhodes ready for the summer and was thinking about putting a thermoelectric 12 V cooler on the boat so I don't have to worry about replenishing ice all the time.  I have two batteries and two solar panels.  If I left something like this plugged in all the time, would it be likely to run my batteries down or would the solar panels be able to keep up with the demand?  I'm not very good with this electrical stuff so looking for advice.
