What this video covers

Huub travels from Grenada to the Annapolis Boat Show to source marine parts, including DC-DC chargers, spare starters, and impeller housings, which are significantly cheaper in the United States than in the Caribbean.1:13 After attending the show and meeting other content creators, he returns to his boat in Grenada to resume maintenance projects.6:26 He reinstalls solar panels in their original configuration after a temporary roof modification caused shading issues that prevented full battery charging.7:01 He also replaces a single-piece propeller zinc with a two-piece design that allows for underwater replacement without removing the propeller.11:55 Finally, he installs a Renogy One Core monitor and a battery shunt to track electrical consumption and battery state-of-charge via Bluetooth.15:34 The installation requires a firmware update on the monitor to successfully pair with the shunt.18:07 Future work will focus on keel repairs.18:35
