It’s Spring and every Spring means renewal, updates, cleaning, change, rebirth and more cleaning! Spring is busting out all over including at the LBI !
We have new solar power and new paint. Marine navy has replaced the blue and red. The kitchen appliances have been relocated to the Wheel House and a metal cabinet for pots , pans ,frying pans and cutlery is added. You can now cook with propane , wood , or solar powered electricity.
The kiddy corner and bathrooms are all spruced up and new “merch“ is added including the famous hand made, ‘fisherman rope mats.’
Visitors are now encouraged to bring their own bedding but if you forget, We’ve “got you covered with new sleeping bags”.
You think this is cool, wait till you see what’s happening outside.

Here are the photos of my Lobster teeter-totter Solar panel setup as described in my previous post. Inexpensive, basic and effective. Assembled based on the KIS theory of engineering. “Keep It Simple”.
This is the latest of multiple other ways we make things happen here at the LBI. Come check us out. We KIS.

Power to the People, and that includes YOU! Yes, we are now completely off grid and we, accidentally have discovered a unique method to collect sun energy from the sun in both the morning and afternoon. This concept is of course not new and can be achieved by mounting your panel on a post that, with the use of sensors, will enable your panel to automatically follow the sun. That’s high tech and too rich for our blood.

So we simply lean the panel against a curved top lobster trap. In the morning it points to the rising sun. At mid day it sits flat (pointing at the sun overhead ) and in the late afternoon we roll it over the trap much like a teeter totter. Voila, in this way we easily harvest full solar energy the entire day and our power packs remain fully charged! Come see for yourself.

I’m thinking of registering the idea with the patent office and calling it the “Lazy Man Lobster Solar Trap” or the “Lobster Trap Solar Teeter-Totter”. LOL (just kidding).

Here is more of the upgrade reveal. You've seen the connection ports on one of the power packs that "electrify" the boat. Now, here are three of the new solar panels that will charge the packs. Let there be light - And there was light. Thank you Mr./Miss sun.

Wow, I saw some snow flakes gently falling today, April 24! It seems that Spring is having trouble “ busting out all over”. But this long winter can’t last forever and  we’re getting excited about the warm weather of summer arriving soon. The Antigonish summer music festival is always a big hit in August. It’s a two day event so if you plan to attend, don’t forget the lobster boat inn for your accommodation. August 7/8 dates are still available. We’re just 10 min. Out of town. Book trough thelobsterboatinn.ca
For details see - https://www.antigonishmusicfestival.com/
