Congratulations on your solar panel install with Shift. Shift installed a 7kW solar system on our roof in January of 2024, like you I’ve loved tracking our solar panel system in real time. We’ve produced just over 7000 kWh since the install and even in the short time we’ve had it we’ve noticed savings on our bill.
We're moving to the island from Ontario within the next year. We're in our mid 40's. Do you think you'd have enjoyed it as much as you do now if you moved in your 40's?
If we could have found jobs in our field, then yes, we could have moved and started to enjoy island life. Good luck with your move and thanks for watching!😎
I like that Sea Piper, it looks like the perfect trawler for the Baltic sea. As a finn I`m glad that Targa finally starts to "go America", their boats are the real deal and you can go out almost regardless of the weather. Rugged and very solidly built they are the right choice for almost every conditions and they also age well. Interesting video.
The SeaPiper is an interesting vessel. Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching Robert!😎

I'd love to hear an update on your feeling on your choices now that you've gone through a summer, and into winter. We're considering our options here in Abbotsford, and local information like you have is certainly of value to us.
Thanks for your comment. We are very happy with our solar set-up and hope to produce a follow-up episode in the near future. Thanks for watching😎
Really good video with wonderful content and very informative. The background music is a little irritating but if muted I miss the commentary. Well done anyway!

I came to the Island 50 years ago from the Ottawa Valley. Spent the last 30 in Parksville with my family. I'll bet that corn you like is from Silver Meadows.

Use to feel like a slower pace unloading at Nanaimo from the ferry, a relieve getting back on the Island ,now it feels the same as Being in Vancouver, feels more at home after i get to Parksville.
Interesting observation Paul. It’s certainly nice to enjoy the slower pace in a smaller city or town. Thanks for watching😎
Born in St Josephs Hospital there, in 53, lived at Kin Beach, just North of the CFB, then moved to the North Thompson area in 58. I still love to go back though. I love the whole area from there to Deep Bay.
Wonderful you have roots in such a beautiful place! I hope you get a chance to visit again. Thanks for watching😎

Parksville is nice but it is very quiet in the winter months, head down to Mexico for a few months in the winter.
You’re right! Parksville is quiet in the winter and we like that! Many people do head south for some sunshine and heat! Thanks for watching😎
