Can we buy the solar panels on the Uma website?

Several sailors have YouTube videos describing their ways to add solar panels. I am sure Dan and Kika have checked them out. Depending on headroom in the cockpit (how tall is Dan?), several 100W panels could be installed just below the boom and over the dodger (not under the boom for obvious reasons). I guess this would add not less than 400W to the array. I agree that using the railings also makes sense, even adding stainless steel tubes forward. This would allow 2 X 100W on each side, perhaps even three. Combined this would add 800W inputs or more. I would simply look into 100W panels and attach them to the railing with a simple mechanism to raise them to a horizontal level when needed. When the panels are let down (when underway) you even can "hide" them with a cloth. You could repeat this on the stern with possibly room for 2 X 50W panels (I think there is insufficient room for 100 W panels there given the autopilot. The idea would be to make the panels easily available. If the intent is to remove the panels while underway, then the issue becomes one of storage. On passages, the forward berth is typically not used, so storing 4 X 100 W panels is basically 70cm X 105cm X20cm. That footprint is not all that large, compared to the folded solution which indeed has a lot of movable parts and still needs 30 X 30cm storage.

You’re the cake on the plate Kika! Dan is the icing on the cake. Woot woot

Nice CAD user 'frame design' idea …but perhaps 'cosmetic' or "a solution looking for a problem"?. Why the need to be portable? – Why the need to fold or take down after deployment… adding much cost before deployment? What utility if normal fixed frames and connectors are much cheaper and robust. Many might practically and budget wise just buy what's needed, and go with it…? Fun Thor Heyerdal social vid though.

I was kinda missing seeing Dan's handcraft skills in action.
