This lightship kept ships safe - And Rob tells you about the Lithium battery conversion - Episode 44

The port of Hellevoetsluis celebrates its 400th anniversary today! We visit an old light ship that used to be a beacon at Zeeland's coast, but is now a museum. And Rob tells you a little bit about the Lead Acid to Lithium battery conversion he is doing for Sirius (LiFePO4).

======================================================
We are Rob and Jouke and together with our cat Tijger we sail the beautiful waters of the Netherlands.
We visit beautifull places and tell you all about the history and other interesting things.
Dispite the fact that we have no tropical climate in Holland, it is still very beautiful.
