CAPAC READINGS WHILE DRIFTING WITH ENGINE OFF

I GET LOW READINGS ON MY CAPAC METER WHILE DRIFTING WITH MY EGINE OFF. WHAT SHOULD IT BE READING?
AT MY DOCK WITH A GUPPY CLIPPED TO THE REAR CLEAT THE READING IS 1.0 WHICH SEEMS NORMAL . I AM NOT CONNECTED TO THE SHORE POWER.

THANKS.

Marinette name plate

Hi all: Where can I find a replacement name plate for my 1972 Marinette hard top express. When the boat was painted the painter broke the name MARINETTE on the side of my boat and it could not be repaired. Where can I get another one?
Thanks
