The previous owner had installed two solar panels, radar, sat TV, antennas and you name it on the tired pilothouse roof, and in the last year, I've stripped all the equipment off, re-cored and re-skinned it to support nothing but solar panels. Now that I've dedicated the space to solar, I have to move the mast and other equipment to avoid solar shadow as much as possible. I've Photo-Shoped three possible arrangements to facilitate the cause, but when you do this concentrated work, it becomes difficult to stand back and gain any objectivity on how it really looks.
So at the risk of opening myself to massive critique, can you tell me which one you think looks best? I know I don't have a good looking vessel and much about it has already received negative commentary, but I'd rather not add additional imbalance, if you know what I mean. To meet my Admiral's needs regarding a workable MOB plan, the old mast and boom are gone in favor of the swinging davit shown on the boat deck. Thanks for your input.
