Solar panel to Xpro 530

[flint]

Being new to ribbing just one of my decisions is how to charge up the battery whilst on a swinging mooring.

I thought of a solar panel. Would a 10w flexible solar panel either glued or bolted onto the seat in front of the console be suitable ?

When we used the rib I could cover the panel with the cushion and then when she was on the mooring I could remove the cushion and connect to the battery. Is this practical ?

They say they are strong enough to walk on so hopefully it would be fine.

What say you ?

I take it you're not using a console cover?

Walk on, maybe. Not sure if that constitutes 'landed on when you go airborne' though?

How about one of the roll up panels?

An 80w panel produces 4.8amps max in perfect conditions so depending on the size of your battery bank a 10w panel won't cover the discharge without any load....
