I had this on the battery watering systems thread and decided it may become a hijack so it's here ......
I've always used AGM's on my trawlers. Sorta assumed others did too. But I'll bet it's like my assumption about only a few used all chain on their anchors. I made another assumption recently too along the same lines. Perhaps most everybody uses regular lead acid batts?
Would be interesting if someone would make up a poll w fifty or so topics so we could actually get aquainted w each other .. boat wise anyway. And then post the results both as in how many use AGM batts (as an example) and then a page that would list everything for each person. Wanna know something about a member just look at his poll profile. Holy cow (sea cow of course) he's got 8 bilge pumps! Or had no idea anybody used no chain at all for an anchor rode. Or I thought about 20% of us had Rocnas but it's only 2%. I'm not the only one that has assumptions .. I just talk about mine. All of us have assumptions we're not even aware of.
But it would be way too much work so getting somebody to do it at the level I'm talking about probably wouldn't happen. But is that an assumption?
