Tim, the host of the *Mystic*, fabricates and installs a custom solar arch and rack to support two 400-watt bifacial solar panels.18:13 He constructs the rack from steel tubing, modifying the design to accommodate the panels' dimensions and the boat's stern configuration.19:01 To facilitate welding the rack to the existing arch, the crew moves the *Mystic* from a mooring ball to a guest dock at Shelter Island.5:21 During the departure from the mooring, the stern line fouls the propeller, requiring an underwater effort to clear the line before the boat can proceed.14:19 The project also includes installing marine-grade starboard seats at the stern to replace unsecured deck chairs.0:20 The crew manages logistics by using two vehicles to transport welding equipment, the solar rack, and the panels between the boat launch and the guest docks.10:42 After successfully welding the rack and mounting the panels, the crew completes the installation and prepares to return the vessel to its mooring.16:29
