The owners of the Antares sailing catamaran *Calypso* completed a comprehensive electronics and electrical system overhaul, transitioning the vessel to a single 50-amp shore power configuration while retaining a 30-amp redundant system capable of accepting 220V international power.1:39 Marinecraft technicians installed three 3,000-watt Victron MultiPlus inverter/chargers, configured as one master and two slave units, alongside a Victron Lynx power distribution system and three 330-amp-hour lithium batteries.10:35 The upgrade includes a new navigation suite featuring three networked chart plotters, an AIS, a VHF radio, and an autopilot, all requiring sea-trial calibration.9:43 The system uses a battery management system (BMS) to automate power distribution between solar, alternator, and shore power inputs, eliminating the need for a heavy isolation transformer.11:42 The installation also involved custom woodwork at the helm to accommodate the new display configuration.8:38 The project concludes with a sea trial to calibrate the electronic compass and autopilot, confirming the system's ability to run air conditioning and high-draw appliances directly from the battery bank.3:25
