BTW, that white vinyl also cleans up really well with acetone.
I use it every year on the rubrail & dorades, looks like new with minimal effort.
I also wax it after it's clean.

Re: Cove stripe "S"
Maybe find someone with a cricut machine or Etsy custom? I had a friend make my logo because I just have a 6¡± width machine and that has held up perfectly after 4 years. It¡¯s pretty easy to do

Unfortunately, ordering on the Spartan website does not accommodate Canadian shipping addresses and there seems to be no Canadian retailer for Spartan Seacock Grease that I can find. I can purchase

Re: Seacock Grease
I'm not an expert, but if you have the original Spartan bronze seacocks, I

ABYC-13 isn't much of standard -- and it theoretically applies to all types of lithium batteries and not specifica to LFP.? Mostly it says, "follow the manufacturer's recommendations", put in

I'm not anti Mastervolt, I just think Victron is better equipment. On some of the new boats we have delivered there have been several glitches right out of the box.
