Makobob,

I have a small cargo trailer with a deep cycle battery I want to charge during the day. I am looking at a 50 watt package that includes the controller and all the wiring to keep this battery topped off so I can charge a tune box to take to the beach, and maybe a couple other electronic devices.

How safe would a small solar panel be set up on the ground or on top of my 5x8 cargo trailer?

At my camp it should be safe, I have 3 diffrent people to keep an eye out. While things sometimes disapear we have been theft free. I leave the camp OPEN except when I am gone, during the day I have no worries and like I said 3 people keep an eye out even when I am around. Should be fine.

We will be spending some time down at the beach some days so we can watch the place a bit. Much appreciated that you have a cool place with people looking out for each other.

Does the restaurant have a name?

I plan on bringing a 3 burner propane stove so we can crank one big meal. If you want to take some pressure off the fishermen we can do our dinner on Monday. We are making a huge pot of jambalaya with some steaks. Either Tri Tip or those marinated hanger/flap steaks from Costco. We are also looking at Shrimp Scampi for an appetizer. We usually make more than we can eat and use the leftover meat for next day sandwiches. You tell me what you need and we can crank out some food for the masses.

I everyone shows on time we should have 15 in camp. I also have a 3 burner Denali stove, and a couple of coleman two burners also a GMG Davey crockett smoker/grill. You might need a big pot. No name restaurant but it sits at the end of the road in on your left, can't miss it. KM 133.75
