Floating Islands

Our mission is to develop a solar powered ocean platform suitable for a single family to live on and so stable it is more like a floating island than a typical boat.

MacGregor26s with Solar

I asked a few questions on MacGregorSailers.com and a couple people had mounted solar panels on this type of boat.  Below are two pictures.  I bought two panels yesterday and they are only 35 lbs, not 90 like I thought.  So weight up high is not nearly as bad as I thought.  Ya!
