Solar panels were added to Bay Pelican as 1) cost savings device, payback in saved diesel, maintenance already has paid for them, 2) backup with the solar panels and wind generator I can stay off the dock if the genset goes down, and 3) length of time between generator runs - we can leave the boat for 12/14 hours to tour without worrying about the power level.
