DON’T MAKE MY $5000 MISTAKE! Watch this video to see the PROPER way to build a solar arch on your boat. This is THE BEST solar arch money can buy, and it only cost me $3500 (after spending $5100 on a sub-par build). Please learn from my mistake! Much love!

Ahoy scallywags! Captain James here, inviting YOU to come sail with us. Go to http://www.sailingzingaro.com to see dates/locations. Hope to see you out here! -J
Don't you wish there was a company that made custom solar panels with nice curves. Love the arch! Looking forward to seeing the next leg of the adventure. Maybe another run at Captains log. My wife doesn't really watch much sailing but she really enjoyed those.
Why would anyone go to the southern Ocean?
Ever heard of a place known as Indonesia?
Thats a lot of weight to put offcenter. Your boat will bounce more in hard weather. 23:43
Nice dingy davit ! You stated it’s been on a month ,but I’m seeing rust.
It’s that normal?hope it holds up
Fair winds ⛵️
This is what I did for my solar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJFQwB28hcA
If you turned it upside down it would be so much easier to carry.!!!
It was so painful watching you carry the arch without realizing that flipping it upside down everyone could have held it at waist level and straight arms😆 ❤️🌎⛵️👍 🏝🧜♂️
Awesome Arch and upgrades. I missed a few videos. I'm catching up. Got another bone infection. Got a PICC Line attached to me 24/7 for 8 weeks pumping antibiotics. Soon I'll be out. Have fun James, Hi Anna.
Peace brother

now that is built strong.
when you are sailing in big seas, you can set up a x brace of lines to keep it from moving…something like boom vangs
The arch looks really cool! Can’t wait to get some nice railings for Wilda! But first, more fairing and sanding for us!
I would also recommend that you inspect all of your chain plates and re-bed them
Great job with the arch. Major improvement over the last one. Cheers 🍻

Dingy??? Hahaha
Nice song in the back !
Is your dinghy so dingy?
'Sucks' Is that English? If so what does it mean?
On the backer plate double nut it to be safe. Will stop the lock nut from backing out. 1:00 in nuts just like us!!!!
The backing plates are awesome, easy to understand why they are needed to maintain integrity of the rear structure
The Falklands are worth stopping off at, i visited in 82 on RFA OLNA during a little bar fight. Also went to South Georgia saw the old whale station.
James, if you have a crappy production boat, (paraphrase) and you put a backing place on, how large should it be roughly? Yours looks to be about the same size as the top plate, but on a production boat what should it look like?
Making that piece for your boat twice was such a bummer.
Brazil is where the “most dangerous lighthouse in the World” is, although I didn’t get to see it & Easter Island was where all those chunky statues were found nearly on the beach, that was one of the places that “Kon Tiki” stopped over & met the natives. I think it’s where they found all the tunnels and underground hiding places where the natives went hundreds of years ago whenever they were invaded and I guess they stayed until the invaders were gone. Those sound like really exciting trips with lots to see that most people only see pictures of…..or videos!
Awesome refit James!
Congrats on design and execution of new arch. One Q: where you able to sell/recycle the old?
Well done James! Looks like you & your boat are about ready too take on the world!! Hey was that you playing the Acustic & singing in the back ground? Good music on this one! Be well my friend. <3 😉
Looks great man! Thanks for sharing
Nice AIC James.
That arch could be braced and reinforced easily.
Just Add the radius
Man James, you make a lot of future plans , but the weather , yo god is storming because of the politicians dropping bombs . One day at a time sweet Jesus . a far direction it’s hard to make plans depending on the weather pattern. Good luck captain , have fun on your journey .
Love the new arch. Looking good Cap.
The size of the tubing isn't really your problem. the problem is that you do not have any cross bracing .
rip Naomi Terlini,peter plucky ducky phuky crew
Why don’t you just brace it James
My apologies but do you mind saying for me in one of your videos “it puts the lotion in the basket, or it get the hose again” I would really appreciate that and thank you so much 😊
Awesome video man, I really enjoyed this.
