Hi Alex
There is a very good boatyard down the coast at the Gold Coast called Boat Works. There are a number of businesses there. I have used a company called Ocean Degree to protect manage various works on my boat. They are very good. They can arrange this work for you.
Hope this is helpful

Hi Alex,
I would suggest, for a widely wandering or passage-making boat, that the owner study a Lithium install until he/she feels like they could do it without professional help including working up schematics etc.
Then hire professionals who will review your work and make suggestions.
In this way, you can more knowledgably supervise the work as it proceeds (which I believe is necessary in the majority of boat yards), but more importantly, you will have a much better chance to successfully trouble-shoot the system when there is a hiccup on passage or when in a remote anchorage.
Be sure the professionals give you detailed schematics as well as all paperwork.
My best, Dick Stevenson, s/v Alchemy
