Having our yacht on a swing mooring, we decided to install two solar panels which ensures that the battery bank is always topped up each time we set off. With the heat of the Australian summersun, we have utilized our two solar panels as a bimini cover which creates plenty of shade for the cabin area as well. Installing a large battery bank ensures that we are able to motor for many hours. On a relatively small yacht space it is critical. With the Thoosa engine installed we now have considerably extra valuable room below deck.
