cantilevered solar panel mount on sailboat
An interesting cantilevered mount built by David Grains.
This was seen in the North Channel area of Georgian Bay.  David has two panels cantilevered over his bimini.  They are separated so he can still see through the bimini window to his sails.  He has a considerable number of struts supporting the two supporting poles.
