In-Depth Information
Rather than adding another panel in a suboptimal position, we will often be better off put-
ting our existing solar capacity (or at least a portion of it) on some kind of adjustable
mount. Some boats have panels mounted port and starboard on the stern pushpit where
they can be gradually lowered from a horizontal position. Others have a stern arch con-
struction that allows rotation of the panels around an axis that runs athwart ships. On
smaller boats, the best option might be a free “mobile” panel that can be moved around
the deck and easily tied into an optimal position. Of course, the wind may decide to turn
this into a sport, turning the boat in circles until you give up the chase.
