Re: Mast inspection
Mast leakage seems to be a very common issue on Freedoms. We have pretty much solved this with 2 mast collars. We have 1 rubber mast collar that you can buy at West Marine, etc which goes around the mast ring at the bottom and then is secured to the mast with a large hose clamp. Over the top of that...

Re: Battery Woes
I'm going to disagree with the suggestion for AGMs, in particular when you're discharging to the level that you're doing. You won't get many cycles out of them. What you really want is Ni-MH batteries which can be heavily deep-cycled, many, many times and they accept huge amounts of charging current...
