The pursuit of a dream is seldom a smooth path. It is filled with hurdles, setbacks, and moments of doubt. However, dreams empower us to develop resilience and perseverance. They provide the strength to overcome obstacles, learn from failures, and keep moving forward. With each setback, we become more determined, evolving into stronger and more resilient individuals.
Dreams not only transform our lives but also have the power to impact the world around us. By nurturing our dreams, we can create positive change and make a difference in our communities and society.
Empowering Others When we pursue our dreams, we become a source of inspiration for those around us. Our actions and achievements have the potential to empower others to embrace their dreams as well. By sharing our stories, challenges, and successes, we can motivate others to overcome their own barriers and pursue their passions. Together, we can create a ripple effect of dreams turning into reality.
As I conclude this newsletter, I encourage you to reflect on your own dreams. Embrace them wholeheartedly, believe in yourself, and act. Surround yourself with a supportive people , seek guidance from mentors, and never lose sight of the power your dreams possess.
Remember, it's never too late to start pursuing your dreams. With determination, perseverance, and a belief in your abilities, you can achieve remarkable things. Let your dreams fuel your journey to unlock your full potential and make a lasting impact.
About 4 years ago I came across the Torqeedo electric motor. I saw it a trade show. It was quite expensive, but it was also extremely interesting. At the time, they were showing a motor called the 801 Travel Motor. The total motor and battery weighed just 24 lbs. Instead of having a lead acid battery weighing 50 lbs., the Torqeedo had a lithium ion battery which weighed only 6 lbs. Best of all, it truly delivered about 2 hp, making it useful for motoring against the winds and tides that I experienced on my salt water bays.
But the battery range was still pretty limited (35 minutes at full throttle, 2.5 hours at half throttle). I yearned for unlimited range. When I connected the solar panel I had the great pleasure of seeing the battery charge without having to take it off my SailCat and or do anything.
I came across PowerFilm because I had been able to destroy the first solar panel that Torqeedo first sold me in 2 short weeks. This was probably because I put it on my SailCat and inundated the solar panel every day while sailing. In frustration with their own solar panel, Torqeedo had been talking with PowerFilm. When I demolished the first Torqeedo solar panel, Torqeedo suggested that I test the PowerFilm panel. The first solar panel that PowerFilm provided did not fare much better, but I did get a full month out it before I swamped it to death.
For the past 6 months, I tested the new PowerFilm solar panel with the new, truly waterproof connectors. I can now say that it truly works and it regularly charges the lithium battery in about 10 hours which is way better than 3 weeks.
Now we are taking this same technology and seeing if we can apply it to other obvious and perhaps, more universal uses. As you can see from the pictures in this blog, we have put a solar panel on our standard sun/rain canopy. It does the same thing as the solar panel on my SailCat, although it certainly is in a drier better position to take full advantage of the sun. This is yet another step on the long road to the realization of my solar dream.
We also are working on a new solar panel and Torqeedo pontoon boat package with larger canopy which will be able to accommodate 2 solar panels strung together in daisy chain to provide even faster recharging and to extend the range of Torqeedo motors even more. When these are available, by early this summer, we will put them up on our website and in our catalogs.
i have not yet purchased a sea eagle boat although i am looking at putting 1 in my travel trailer. the solar panel would be a great idea to use on the boat and maybe on the trailer when dry camping to keep the battery charged. keep me informed.
Thank you for your kind remarks. We will be putting a new catalog late this spring on new developments with this technology. I will also be making followup posts on our experiments with solar panels and electric motors.
It is true that electric motors have limited range and limited power, A MinnKota is fairly reasonable in cost, but the battery is quite heavy and carrying 2 batteries would be a pain. The Torqeedo has much more power, but still limited range. Carrying 2 fully batteries is quite practical, but a Torqeedo with 2 batteries is quite expensive.
It is true you could put a solar panel on the PaddleSki, but this would take up the front half of a PaddleSki and is also quite expensive. I think this best works when the boat is going to be near where you will be motoring or sailing, then you do not have to take off the battery as it get recharged. This also bring up the issue of how to rig a rudder when the motor is on.
This summer we will be coming out with a new kayak sail (a high aspect sail, not a lateen rig). This will also have a rudder oar that would allow you to have a Torqeedo on the PaddleSki at the same time.
Thank you for your comments. I am not very familiar with the water current generators you speak of. I would like to know more. I have been interested in wind power generators also although I do not know much about them. I think ultimately both may be of additional use in recharging batteries.
Regarding your idea of strapping on solar panels on the pontoons, this is feasible although it requires specific size panels and some D-rings to attach them. My guess is that you get more area for solar charging when the panel is between the pontoons. It could be that you could do both.
The sailboat system drags a prop behind via a flexible torque shaft. A downsized version is completely doable. I think a downsized wind generator around five to ten pounds could go on the top of the mast, much heavier and larger would end up having to factor in the sailing technique, not good when the principal sail area is already a challenge to newbies.
You will find the PowerFilm solar panel listed on our website under electric motors. I would like to note, using a solar panel is pretty expensive and may not be for everyone. I think it makes the most sense when your boat is left on or near the water all the time. This allows the solar panel to recharge your battery when you are not using it without having to take the battery off the boat and to provide additional range when you are using it.
As long as you can attach our canopy to your one-man pontoon boat you should be able to attach one of our PowerFilm panels. This makes the most sense when the boat is left on or near the water because the solar panel can charge your battery when the boat is not being used.
Once you have a canopy, the solar panel can go on top. This will probably restrict the use of your 285, since standing will be difficult and fishing with a canopy on can also be challenging. In any case, it probably can be done.
Some years ago a commercial company made a sail boat using ridgid sails. By ridgid they were made from fabric but treated with something that made them ridgid, also used for skins on light aircraft. Then you could use an adhesive to apply the solar cells to the sails providing a larger area for cells and keeping them dry unless you fliped. Lots of luck and a very interesting project.
You beat me to it! Last September I bought the same model with the canopy and I was going to mount the solar panel to the canopy for my Torqeedo! But by the time the boat arrived, the season was over! Now I have to wait for the ice to melt! Thanks for proving the concept!
Hi Cecil,
Thank you for your mail regarding your experience with solar power it was very interesting. I bought a Sea Eagle Kayak last year and used it on the Norfolk broads U.K. while camping. It has turned out to be an excellent buy and very good value considering the high quality and strength in the materials used. I am also interested in solar powered light weight boat technology. What I would like to know is if the batteries for the Torqeedo can also be topped up at night using a wind powered unit back at the camp site or would this have an adverse effect on there life. Also should the batteries be left in a discharged state for any length of time will they become damaged or do they need to be charged regularly throughout dormant periods. Due to the cost of the batteries the expected life span is definitely an issue.
Best Regards,
Phil.
I recently purchased the hobie adventure island (a trimaran with two trampolines), and have considered buying the Hobie Evolve (by torqueedo). And now the v2 motor has the solar charge connector. I believe on this system if I could connect two solar panels in place of the trampolines, I should be able to make this work without much drain to the battery I believe each panel could put 50-75 watts from the avaiable 16 sq feet. I need to talk with Hobie and Torqueedo to see if this is an option they may want to approach Powerfilm for custom panels to fit inbetween the outriggers.
They know more about this than I do. In any case, I think you are right. Larry or Ron probably can weigh on this, but I think Hobie is already experimenting with Powerfilm solar panels specifically for a Hobie Adventure Island. 152ee80cbc
