Eborana has been looked after and use as a family cruising boat since 2004 by my family, she has always been maintained and kept up together and used most of the year all year round, she has heating on board engine and diesel heating hot air or with mains hook up, she is quite capable of running on her own power. She has 2 x 85 empire leisure batteries amidship and 110amp hour battery forward and a starter battery in the engine Bay. Battery switch 1-2 off and both switch, charging through 45amp alternator and 100w solar panel.
