The Dirty Secrets of Marine Generators

A tale of woe, generator breakdowns aplenty, We dive deeper into our Nanni generator which has suffered from numerous issues. Fuel starvation, capacitor explosions, and the final stroke .... Not producing the 240v ac power we need for daily life aboard . We add a day tank to fix the fuel issues, they we have to extract the generator no less than seven times to reveal the horrors within. The first rewind of the electrics fails... OH no we have to sail back 40 miles to undertake yet another rewind. Final all is well with the generator. "Never give in Never surrender" the moto for this video.
