Solar Panel mounting project

This is a great thread! I was thinking maybe make the mount out of PVC trim board, but the aluminum is prob a better long term solution.

Side not: I have the same wake board holder and for the life of me, i cant mount it so it lays horizontal...I have a 2017 AR210. The angles of my wake tower doesn't allow it to be installed level. Oh well.
 
Great idea and great write up!
 
Figured I show my solar charger project on my 2021 AR210 tower mount. I used a computer monitor pole mount and attached to the tower light. I ran the cable through the tower using a fish wire. This way it always charges with or without the cover or the bimni top.
