I am looking to get a wind turbine, but with mizzen boom and the dangling luggage on the transom (solar panel array/davit) I cant figure the best spot to put it.. Does anyone else have a wind turbine? Where did you guys find a spot? and what kind of wind turbine do you have?

Id be looking at minimising the noise wind turbines make, your defences are distance from source and direction.

In that light up on the mizen around the location many people use to situate a radar dome.
Its out of the way of the rig and accidental fouling. It gives you distance, and prevents a straight path for noise through the hatch, below.
