Our Most AMBITIOUS Sailing Boat Project Yet...(2000W on a 40ft Monohull) // Teulu Tribe

Our biggest upgrade yet (and we are only half way there). Join us as we transform our sailing boat's energy system with an ambitious solar panel installation, which results in a couple of setbacks, a bit of blood, and a floppy support beam. In this episode, we tackle the challenges of mounting two (HUGE) panels on our solar arch, aiming to keep our batteries charged as we head to higher latitudes. ????????

Trouble is- we were in a pandemic, had a university degree to finish, on a student budget, only had ever sailed dingies, oh and didn't have a boat. The dream seemed not only unrealistic but pretty insane. However, we worked hard, finished our degrees, worked as many hours as physically possible, saved with all our might, got experience and in March 2022 bought our very own sailboat, Teulu. Having little sailing experience and being a young couple, we have encountered a tonne of hurdles and made plenty of mistakes! but for every downfall, there has always been a reason to dust ourselves off and carry on. We hope you can join us as we sail around the world and keep #bloodydoingit *Sponsors* Kemp Sails: https://kempsails.com/ Battleborn Batteries: https://battlebornbatteries.com/?afmc=kt&utm_campaign=kt&utm_source=leaddyno&utm_medium=affiliate Lasdrop Seals: https://lasdrop.com/ EasySea Winch Handles: https://easysea.org/?sca_ref=5531402.s0BZ4EpnhN Crewsaver: https://crewsaver.com/us Rocna: https://rocna.com/ *Timestamps* 00:00 Intro 02:15 The Previous Day 05:11 Figuring out how to mount the monster panels 11:11 Adding the frame to the arch 11:33 Lifting up the first panel 13:03 No sagging panels allowed 14:41 Wiring a lot of wire 19:53 Adding fuses 21:32 Becka's accident 24:22 Zach is just stripping (wires) 27:45 Connecting everything up #travel #sailing #boatlife #boat #yacht #adventure #marina #knot #anchor #compass #navigation #voyage #cruising #liveaboard #wanderlust #explore #nomad #globetrotter #bucketlist #destination #passport #circumnavigation #tinyhome #offgrid #offgridliving #discover #discovery #teulutribe
