Solar battery chargers have been around a long time - my sister used one off grid in Cameroon for several years. Seems like they would work well on those islands. It is usually overcast where I live, so I am more interested in a treadle desk. A laptop takes 20W or less, and is easily powered by a foot treadle.

If stranded on an island, but you have wifi, try www.uscg.mil.
