‘We’ve got the POWER! We install a big solar panel and new batteries on our small sailboat’ – Ch.16

In this chapter, we finally slip the lines and go sailing! That is, just after we install a BIG 245watt Panasonic solar panel and 340ah AGM batteries to store all the reNEWable power. Neither of us are electricians, so it was a steep learning curve, but with a lot of help from our friends and a bit of trial and error we got there in the end. ‘Bertha’ (the panel) now generates enough power for us to live and work from the boat, which was always a goal of ours when we set off on this adventure. Next, we sail West towards Athens, racing across the Aegean for the second time before the Meltemi kicks in again.
