A partially scraped bottom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It’s taken me a few visits, but over the past few weeks of Pleinair being in the yard, I’ve been getting mucky underneath and designing and installing a new solar arch, which is why it’s up and under!.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As can be seen in the photo, it’s completely supported on the pushpit rails, thus allowing me to remove it rapidly by removing the clamps, should I ever need to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My plan is to house three 80-watt panels up there giving me a total of 240 watts, it’s possible that this may end up being just short of my needs but we\u2019ll see, If need be I can always add another MPPT controller, and up the panel size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As for the underneath, well it’s scraping it back to the initial gel shield (at least I think that’s what it is), sorting a couple of small issues underneath, and applying a completely new epoxy layer before re-antifouling the whole underside. I’ve also completely removed the rudder as this also requires some attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not much other news really at this point. So here are a couple of pictures of the progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
