Eco Boat Wash “Success”

After our club tournament at Rocky Fork the club fired up the solar panels and power washer for the fist “Solar Boat Wash” which turned out to be a success.

Its good to have high blue skies and sunshine for an event like this but even with 45 watts of solar, a charge controller and some batteries we all seen it was enough energy to use a 1650 PSI power washer and clean all the boats in the club.  We actually hauled 100 gallons of water in the holding tank and I bet we didn’t use a third of it.  So we learned alot and the boat wash was definitely a success.
