About the Marine-RadarWhat Everyone Ought to Know About the Marine-Radar If you have a sailing sailing yacht then you also recognize that they are relatively complex and have countless systems that can break down or need maintenance. You may own one of my marine electrical or marine electronics books or a book in the Understanding Boat series and I trust you found it helpful and illuminating I am a qualified and practising marine electrical and electronics engineer as well as a marine surveyor. I am also a yachtsman just like you and I have constructed and cruised several yachts. I have performed sailing sailing yacht service work on countless other sailboats lived aboard numerous cruising sailing boats for a decade or more. You find out a lot about what works and what fails. I extend hardheaded advice based on experience and reality. Like many I choose to do my own sailing yacht repair work as professionals can charge some dreadful hourly rates. It is a fact that the majority of all sailing boat electrical and electronics failures are directly caused by incorrect wiring and imperfect wire connections. These same problems are also a major cause of fires on cruising yachts. Just because the average yacht has only a 12 volt electrical system, this will not preclude life-threatening breakdowns or fires. One incorrectly rated and installed cable and an equally imperfect connection could potentially destruct you cruising yacht.
