OK that's a Brady these and other power cats I know well enough.
I was going to build a Waller some years ago but opted out when I realised how good a sea boat I already had and didn't wish to go thru the pain of building again at my stage of life ,especially with all that epoxy.
One of my mates is in the mid build stages of his second cat in 5 years and I think he wishes he didn't sell the first one.
What engines did you fit , did you install a generator or go all solar and wind.
What engines are the mains?
A photo would be nice?
I have increased the number of solar panels on Tidahapah using lay flat flexible units, a bit expensive but very useable as they can be walked upon from first trials with my last trip they are a real bonus. I didn't use the really expensive Italian panels but the cheaper Chinese (same cells) units.
By the way where do you keep your boat, down the bay or elsewhere?
Cheers
