I want to personally thank everyone who took part in this debate early on. It's hardly an exaggeration to say that this particular debate on Sailnet was a major factor in our successful entry into the marine marketplace... and for that, we express our sincere gratitude to all of you.
Because of the debate here, many whom might not have otherwise heard about us... did.
Many who did their homework and researched the purchase of a Solar Stik™, inadvertently stumbled into this forum. It was enough to make them further investigate, and many ended up purchasing a system.
The letters keep pouring in from cruisers around the world who bought one, and found out first hand just at how well it works (and yes, blown away by the construction as well!)
For example, one cruising couple first heard about it here in this forum... we just received a response back from him with a cruising update:
"...She's over in the Bahamas right now. it was a bit late in the season to bring her north, so we left her in Hope Town for the winter. We had multiple people dingy up to the boat at
anchor asking to check out the Stik, and we sang its praises. It puts out enough power to run both reefer units with some juice left over to
pump up the batteries to boot! Love it!"
This gentleman has a brand new Hylas 46 and had his system installed at the Hylas factory. He is only one writer one of many, many letters we have received.
Thank you to everyone here... we truly appreciate your spirit and opinions.
