Carbon C-Tech battens repurposed into Solar Panel Bracket

We have 3 days to get a heap of solar panels installed somewhere on Paikea before a weather window opens for our trip down to warmer weather in the Canary Islands. We can't source any aluminium to repair/modify the existing broken frame so Shayne is using some left over C-tech carbon fibre battens. We ended up running out of time and mounting the new bracket above the old one. Not really the most ideal situation given that we are always harping on about the weight but hey sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. At least we have the solar panels safely out of the way for sailing and we can dismantle the old frame and mount those panels to the roof top at a later stage. Always fun to show how the kiddos help with the sailing. Hope you enjoy!
