Is the cost of a solar system worth it?

We have a '22 38' 3231CK. We're full-timers (6 month so far) and wondering if solar can be installed as a DIY project. Our rig is 'prewired' for solar and there is one 200W panel installed that keeps the batteries charged. I have a good idea of what we need (1600ish watts) as well as the other equipment that goes with it. Done professionally, it would run probably $18K, I can probably buy the components for $10K. Has anyone, as a non-professional, installed their own system? I feel that if the components came with quality instructions and access to tech support (and YouTube of course), I should be able to pull it off. I'd love to hear from those smarter than me who have a recommendation.
