Yacht Electrical Systems Maintenance for Keeping your Yacht Alive

Although megayacht owners and yacht engineers may be knowledgeable, they are not licensed to work as the ship's electricians. Owners frequently hire yacht repair firms to handle work on their electrical systems.

A detailed knowledge of the vessel's electrical systems enables the yacht repair and maintenance business to identify and address minor faults before they become more serious ones. Therefore, regular preventative maintenance of the yacht's electrical systems will keep it operating at its best.

Regular equipment inspections, even if there are no visible indicators of malfunction or wear and tear, are part of preventive maintenance. Vulnerabilities in systems, materials, and equipment are also taken into account. The technical and mechanical staff aboard yachts schedule routine maintenance tasks to prevent costly damages. They have a good maintenance schedule in place as well.

In particular, the following systems are focused upon for preventive maintenance:

Alarms, monitoring systems

Lights, lighting systems

Circuit breakers, switchboards

Generators, motors

Hey bestie whats a narrow boat? I saw you tag that on something you reblogged and I'm pretty curious now!

- Terry Darlington, Narrow Dog to Carcassone

A narrowboat (all one word) is a craft restricted to the British Isles, which are connected all over by a nerve-map of human-made canals. To go up and down hills, the canals are spangled with locks (chambers in which boats can be raised or lowered by filling or emptying them with water.) As Terry says above, the width of the locks was somewhat randomly determined, and as a result, the British Isles have a narrow design of lock - and a narrowboat to fit through them. A classic design was seventy feet long and six feet wide. Starting in the 18th century, and competing directly with trains, canal “barges” were an active means of transport and shipping. They were initially pulled along the towpaths by horses, and you can still see some today!

Later, engines were developed.

Even after the trains won the arms race, it was a fairly viable freight service right up until WW2. It’s slow travel, but uses few resources and requires little human power, with a fairly small crew (of women, in WW2) being capable of shifting two fully laden boats without consuming much fossil fuel.

In those times the barges were designed with small, cramped cabins in which the boaters and their families could live.

During its heyday the narrowboat community developed a style of folk art called “roses and castles” with clear links to fairground art as well as Romani caravan decor. They are historically decorated with different kinds of brass ornaments, and inside the cabins could also be distinctively painted and decorated.

Today, many narrowboats are distinctively decorated and colorful - even if not directly traditional with “roses and castles” they’ll still be bright and offbeat. A quirky name is necessary. All narrowboats, being boats, are female.

After a postwar decline, interest in the waterways was sparked by a leisure movement and collapsing canals were repaired. Today, the towpaths are a convenient walking/biking trail for people, as they connect up a lot of the mainland of the UK, hitting towns and cities. Although the restored canals are concrete-bottomed, they’re attractive to wildlife. Narrowboats from the 1970s onward started being designed for pleasure and long-term living. People enjoy vacationing by hiring a boat and visiting towns for a cuter, comfier, slower version of a campervan life. And a liveaboard community sprang up - people who live full-time on boats. Up until the very restrictive and nasty laws recently passed in the UK to make it harder for travelling peoples (these were aimed nastily at vanlivers and the Romani, and successfully hit everyone) this was one of the few legal ways remaining to be a total nomad in the UK.

Liveaboards can moor up anywhere along the canal for 28 days, but have to keep moving every 28 days. (Although sorting out the toilet and loading up with fresh water means that a lot of people move more frequently than that.) you can also live full-time in a marina if they allow it, or purchase your own mooring. In London, where canal boats are one of the few remaining cheapish ways to live, boats with moorings fetch the same prices as houses. It can be very very hard for families to balance school, parking, work, and all the difficulties of living off-grid- but many make it work. It remains a diverse community and is even growing, due to housing pressures in the UK. Boats can be very comfortable, even when only six feet wide. When faced with spending thousands of pounds on rent OR mooring up on a nice canal, you can see why it seems a romantic proposition for young people, and UK television channels always have slice-of-life documentaries about young folks fixing up their very own quirky solar-powered narrowboat. I don’t hate; I did it myself.

If you’re lucky, you might even meet some of the cool folks who run businesses from their narrowboats: canal-side walkers enjoy bookshops, vegan bakeries, ice-cream boats, restaurants, artists and crafters. There are Floating Markets and narrowboat festivals. It’s generally recognised that boaters contribute quite a lot to the canal - yet there are many tensions between different kinds of boaters (liveaboards vs leisure boaters vs tourists) as well as tensions with local settled people, towpath users like cyclists, and fishermen. I could go on and on explaining this rich culture and dramas, but I won’t.

Phillip Pullman’s Gyptians are a commonly cited example of liveaboards - although they were based on the narrowboat liveaboards that Pullman knew in Oxford, their boats are actually Dutch barges. Dutch barges make good homes but are too wide to access most of the midlands and northern canals, and are usually restricted to the south of the UK. So they’re accurate for Bristol/London/Oxford, and barges are definitely comfier to film on. (Being six feet wide is definitely super awkward for a boat.) but in general Dutch barges are less common, more expensive and can’t navigate the whole system.

However, apart from them, there are few examples of narrowboat depictions that escaped containment. So it’s quite interesting that there is an entire indigenous special class of boat, distinctive and highly specialised and very cute, with an associated culture and heritage and folk art type, known to all and widely celebrated, and ABSOLUTELY UNKNOWN outside of the UK - a nation largely known around the world for inflicting its culture on others. They’re a strange, sweet little secret - and nobody who has ever loved one can resist pointing them out for the rest of their lives, or talking about them when asked to. Thank you for asking me to.

6 Signs You Need to Repair Your Boat

Whether your boat is a recreational vessel or a commercial fishing boat, it must be properly maintained to stay afloat. Unfortunately, even with proper maintenance, boats sometimes need repairs. Here are six signs that you need a boat repair service.

1. Overheating

One of the most common problems reported is the overheating of the boat. Usually, your boat uses water surrounding it to cool its engine via a pump. However, when a part of the system fails, the engine’s temperature will rise, resulting in overheating. Consequently, overheating can be caused by a build-up of dust, dirt, and debris in the cooling passages. It can also be caused by a leaking coolant system or a faulty thermostat. You need all points marine services to determine the exact cause.

2. The Boat Fails to Start

If your boat fails to start, it likely needs to be repaired. There are several reasons a boat might not start, but the most common cause is a problem with the battery. If the battery is dead, it may need to be replaced. If the terminals are corroded, they will need to be cleaned. There could also be a problem with the wiring or the fuel system.

3. Water Leaks

Water leaks are an early sign that something is wrong with your boat. If you notice water pooled in the bilge, on the deck, or in other areas of the boat, it's a good idea to have all points marine services take a look. Sometimes, water leaks can be caused by simple things like loose fittings or cracked seals. However, they can also indicate serious problems, such as hull damage. Get boat maintenance services to avoid critical situations like sinking the boat.

4. You Feel Intense Vibrations

As a boat owner, pay attention to the boat's hull and engine. If you start to feel intense vibrations coming from either of these areas, it's a sign that something is wrong. Seek boat maintenance and repair services as soon as possible. These vibrations can also be caused by anything from a loose propeller resulting from debris or dirt to an issue with the boat's stern.

5. Steering Problems

One common sign is difficulty steering in a straight line. This can be caused by worn or damaged steering cables, fittings, and brackets. Another sign is unusually high steering wheel resistance. This can indicate that the boat's rudder is out of alignment, which can create serious handling issues. Boat owners who notice any of these should get boat maintenance services completed as soon as possible.

6. Broken Drive Belt

A broken drive belt is one of the signs that you need boat maintenance. The drive belt is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the boat's accessories, such as the water pump, alternator, and air conditioning compressor. If the drive belt breaks, it can cause the boat to lose power and stall. You will also note increased temperatures and the failure of the alternator to charge.

If you experience any of these issues with your boat, it's time to contact APB. By getting regular maintenance and repairs, you can prolong the life of your boat and ensure that it runs smoothly for years to come.
