"Minou" has been set up by her present owner for sensible, off grid cruising.  This 45 has 11 x 110w solar panels installed for 1210 watts of charging power for the 600 amp hour house battery bank; enough to fully charge the bank by noon.  The solar set up has 4 MPPT controllers to divide it into zones to get maximum charging even if part is shaded by the sail.  The 3k Victron Multiplus Inverter/Charger can run one of the 6,000 BTU Air Conditioners in the starboard hull off the battery bank so you can stay cool at anchor without running the genset.  In fact this has worked out so well that the installed Northern Lights 6Kw generator only has about 25 hours on it in a year of sailing the US East Coast. 

The Northern Lights 6 kilowatt unit was chosen as it is lighter and more efficient for the loads required on the 45 as the sweet spot of operation is about a 70% load on the geset.  The genset will live longer when it is loaded to 70%. Comes with the new GEM series enclosure is quieter and 23% smaller than the older enclosure, and was made even quieter with a set of isolation mounts outside of the enclosure.  This also means more storage in the cockpit locker for extra cruising gear.
