Some before-and-after photos of the F/V Cindy Sea electrical upgrade.

This Doucette 45 received a major overhaul to its DC electrical system, including reorganized data wiring, a refurbished electrical panel, new switch panels, and the installation of quality Blue Sea Systems and Victron Energy components. The vessel also received a new 400W solar charging system, with the Renogy solar panels to be installed later this week.

Thanks to Tyler J Anderson and Matthew MacSwain for all their hard work on this project. We'd also like to thank Ben Bruce for the opportunity to work on the Cindy Sea and for trusting Red Mud Marine with this upgrade.

We appreciate your business and wish you a safe and successful fishing season!
