Solar charging battery?

By next Summer, my boat will be housed at a marina that does not have
any electricity access at all. Has anyone had any success charging
with solar panels ( for a reasonable cost)? Obviously, I'd like to
not have to haul the battery(s) home to put on a regular charger.
The boat will be exposed to sunlight 7 days a week. I intend to fish
out of her two or three days each week, for periods of only 2 to 3
hours each. I use the trolling motor sparingly. I cannot run the
"big" ( 40 hp ) motor at high speed at all, as the lake is no-wake
from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 a.m. which are the hours that I normally
fish. I won't be on the lake when one could run at high speed. Any
and all ideas appreciated.

A small gasoline generator?
