Power leads and water hoses

Hi all. Tony and Mel here. Very excited! About to pick up our Mars13 hybrid. Wondering what length power leads (10 or 20m?), and water hoses are recommended? Thanks !

I have 2 power leads, 10 & 20 metres, most time I use the 10 metre.

i have two water hoses, most times only need one, but when it is too far the second comes out with a joiner

Welcome to the Forum Tony.
I carry 5M, 10M, 20M leads - an amphibian RCD 10amp to 15amp, plus an inverter generator.

Three water hoses and joiners, plus a two-way brass tap fitting also a tap key.

We rarely stay at caravan parks or showgrounds, mainly free/donation camping - where distances from taps can be uncertain, or generator needs to be placed at distance from van.

Note we do have the luxury of plenty of space - 6.5M Evernew and Y62 Patrol.

We carry two 5M sullage hoses and a joiner, we don't have a fitted grey water tank, but we have a 20L expandable grey water tote (rarely used) that can be attached to van.
