Hi Anthony, and welcome. I recently joined the forum too and have found the best way of getting answers is to establish seperate threads for each specific question.
Good luck.
Ken

Hi

Solar for the vents x 2 i.e. push and pull air

i split my wiring to nav and internal and these are on separate batteries with the internal panel being inside and the outside one being above the steering wheel but cost more due to being waterproof. I then add a spare battery to weigh the front down but fully charged and quick release connectors ( maplins £10-15.00) so I could use if I had a problem.

Oh I also use the following

auto bilge
fish finder
VHF
Nav lights
GPS
12v socket

Internal so far is
sink ( water pump)
lights
radio ( not connected yet)
12V socket

and it will have tv

far far cheaper to make so efoam for the foam and then get a full role of leatherette or meterial as it works out less than using the 12-15 meters you will use and you will have spare for next time.

Hi

there are two types of anchor and hence you need to state what sort of sea bed you plan to operate in. sorry but without this we can not help or give you a clear answer
