To answer CD's question...our amp hour usage per day was in the 150 range...but about 80-100 of this was due to the fridge which is a big two bay affair with dual cold plates and we were in VERY warm water with a dark hull. So...I can see smaller bat with limited refrigeration coming in around 100 amp hours a day if they are frugal. We also knew smaller boats that came in above us in daily use...usually through heavy HAM/SSB use or lots of PC & DVD watching time.
That's why I think it is good for people to have a realistic idea of their at anchor A/H useage before making investments in battery banks, alternators, solar stiks etc.
