I didn't know you could own guns in CA

They have guns there????

Surprising, isn't it!

high capacity Glocks

I just sold that LCR so I could buy my second Glock

They probably have to take the triggers of and but some soft foam around the end then bubble wrap the whole thing.

Either that or they are using their fingers making sounds.

Used to be the case with me, but not anymore

Here's my little carry pistola:

Hey I have a serious question though for real...

My buddy bought a 50' Bluewater and we're going to install an inverter and (4) 8D batteries to run the fridge and stereo, tv, etc.

I spec'd out a 2800watt continuous 4000watt surge cap. inverter by Magnum. What do you guys think about that? Think it'll be big enough?

[Ewok]

Welcome back FIVE_, nice expired passport, cleaning out the safe?

[Ewok]

What's up with the PCS orders?

[Fiveflat]

Old old orders staged just for the photo is all...

Will the frige be coming off of shore power and already chilled or will it be powered up on the batteries at the time of launch? This will have a significant impact on battery life.

Fridge will be cooled from shore power and switched to generator at launch and then run off batteries once anchored.

He was hoping to be able to keep his yacht moored on the hook all summer and run for about 3-4 days without the generator starting. LOL I said no effin' way. Not with an 800W fridge.

inverter is costing him $1900... he's nervous and asked me "Are you 100% sure that inverter is big enough? I don't want to be buying another one 2 months from now because you eff'd up your calcs!"
I want to be sure.

I told him he'll likely have to run his generator an hour or two a day, and he'll have to take it back to the marina for Mon-Thurs when nobody is out on it.

My name is Flat..... Five Flat

[Fiveflat]

Does he have any guns?

Nope
I see where you're going with this...

[Iwndr]

Nope

Then the inverter you picked out should be good

[Iwndr]

Grounded

Yup, I knew that was your direction...

Depending on how hard the stereo is played and how often the blender is run he may get a day out of the 4 batteries.

Did you factor in the cooling fan on the inverter

You're in the neighborhood of 2x the continuous load with the inverter, so you should be good.

Why is he letting Nobody use it
