Bobby White plans to trade his electric Island Spirit catamaran, hull number five, for a new diesel-powered model after completing a series of factory-led upgrades.7:23 The manufacturer addressed previous system failures by rewriting software to isolate individual faults rather than shutting down the entire drive system.1:30 Technicians replaced the battery bank, relocated the thrust bearing to reduce vibration and noise, and modified the transom mold to improve engine bay access and water resistance.6:17 The generator now features variable RPM settings—1,500, 2,000, and 2,700—to balance power output with noise and fuel consumption.3:29 White intends to ship the current vessel to the Mediterranean for a year-long cruise before transitioning to a diesel-powered hull number seven.9:07 He maintains his commitment to the 5,000-watt solar and 40-kilowatt-hour lithium house bank configuration for his future boat.8:29 White also confirmed that he will continue to use the Insta360 camera for his production work.29:35
