We were quoted over €20,000 to install solar onto our new yacht! 😱 We thought this was a crazy price, so we did it ourselves (with a little bit of help)!
After months of planning, researching, and wrestling with logistics, we’ve finally done it — our solar power system is officially installed on the boat! 🌞⚓ This has been one of the biggest challenges we've faced in transitioning to life aboard and ensuring we can live sustainably and independently off-grid. In this video, we take you through the steps of the installation and show how it all came together.
Whether you're planning your own solar installation or just curious about how it works on a boat, we hope our experience helps and inspires you.
