Christmas 2015 was planned for the whole Richards family to be together at Ankara youth camp ground. My younger brother Warren has been caretaker of Ankara for 6 & 1/2 years now. It is situated right on the Murray River not far from Adelaide, at Walker Flat. In the picture, Ankara is a section of this narrow strip of dirt between the water. www.ankaracamp.org.au
Being right on the Murray River, I decided to have a look at some solar boat ideas. Ankara has some canoes. We had some solar panel pallets. Maybe we should transform these pallets into a frame that could hold 2 canoes together.
Dale and I got going on the pallets, pulling them apart.
Next was to re=design these pieces of wood. It had to hold the canoes together, hold the solar panels to provide the power, but had to be high to clear the seating area and the shade it could provide would be great.
