dont have to buy new stuff-- used works well and is quite a lot less pricey.....if you live on anchor, you NEED renewable energy or just use diesel or gas engine all the time....i prefer solar and wind, meself-is so much more practical and so much less expensive than using diesel at nearly 4 dollars per gallon at half gallon per hour.....

Nothing against renewable energy, but it comes down to cost and reliability. With the right tax incentives it can make economic sense but you still need a reliable back up source. So when considering cost, reliability and space, I wonder how practical it is on boats.

i got solar cheeeeep--friends old used--isnt the panels deteriorate--is the connections..ssshhhh---dont tell them lol---and i have a motor for creating a wind genny with high output lol..just need some more parts--the blades and hub and some other small items and ta daaaa i will have a wind genny as well as solar and my honda 2kw lol.... there used to be a place in san diego that sold seconds and irregulars--those are gooood---but the man went into retirement and the place is no longer...dang! now everything is 400 percent mark up....
now one has to find someone who works for a city that changes out th e solar panels every yr for hail damage ..lol....anything for a cheap alternative.no reason to pay retail...or, there is a small ad on the side bar of many pages for make it yourself panels....gooodluck...just remember every panel needs to be attached to a regulator--you can make more than one panel to a regulator if you have a ;large enough regulator.....

From experience over three keel boats a fully battened main is almost a requirement.
Not only will it make dropping the sail into the boom bag far easier it certainly reduces any flogging and vastly lengthens the life of the sail. While…"
