    Difference In Solar Panels?

    Thank you for that. I was looking at a smaller version of that same brand. Good to get a second opinion on it!

    Difference In Solar Panels?

    Good catch. Foldable ground type. 2 uses I can think of: 1. charge my battery to run the fridge while camping. 2. charge my battery in a power outage. I'm in Texas, you know sometimes we lose power with half an inch ice...

    Older Rig with upgrades vs Newer Truck near stock?

    Learn to Sail?

    Update: as life happens I haven’t built a sailboat yet. Projects for the house continue and take precedence. However, I’ve found a 2004 Catalina 14.2 a few hours from me that appears to be in excellent condition and ready to sail. It is priced right about $3k. More than I planned to spend but...
