The owner of an Island SPIRIT 525 reports an electrical system fault while anchored at Koh Larn in the Gulf of Thailand.0:05 Despite a DC-to-DC charger running overnight, the house battery bank discharged to 57% capacity, suggesting either a malfunctioning charger or an unidentified power draw exceeding the calculated 1600-watt load.2:13 The vessel also experiences a design flaw in the anchor chain locker, where chain piles up and fails to feed properly, requiring manual intervention at the windlass during retrieval.4:10 Seeking a quieter anchorage, the crew motors to the southeast side of the island, anchoring in 20 feet of water.5:47 They use a Highfield Sport 360 dinghy to access a floating town dock, noting that 9-foot tidal ranges in the region necessitate careful dinghy placement to avoid stranding.7:27 The afternoon includes testing an e-foil and paddleboarding before dining ashore.10:09
