I did a solar thing.....

[Mr Mayor]

Ok, first, some clarification... I don't mind making my boat ghetto, k? It's all about function, form be damned!!

So I spotted a video about adding a small 30W solar panel to help juice up/or at least maintain the battery while fishing and thought, for $100 with some misc wiring, nuts, bolts, n pvc, I'll take a shot.

I admit, I'm not a handy guy, so it took me several hours of sweat to finish it all... but overall, I'm pretty happy with it. It didn't get in my fishin buddies way at all he said.

The link to his site: Steve's EnjoyTimeOutdoors
The link to the video: (which is also in the link above) Da video
and link to Amazon.

So currently (pardon the pun) it did not appear to work.... not sure if it was a crap connection, or if I damaged the panel (the drill bit "just" grazed the inside, so Im not sure if it knocks out 1 'cell', or 1 'row of cells' or worse, ruined the panel... ((Any Solar intelligent people care to comment, I'm ALL EARS and welcome the comments)).

Thanks Gang!
