Thank you for your input TwistedTree.


There seems to be a "sweet spot" when it comes to current tech and current prices for things like solar, lithium batts etc. We are also looking at WingIt kite systems as options to extend range.



Our last "off-grid" experiment was on our 2018 44.5 Toy Hauler where we added solar for our day to day activities. We were not under load and making way. So some of my data will spill over onto our next trawler, using alt propulsion will be different. Figuring solar for daily use on the hook will be pretty straight forward, I would hope.
