Complete Marine Rigid Solar Panel Kits for Charging Batteries

Our rigid marine solar panels are ideal for mounting on arches, dinghy davits, side and stern rails, cabin tops and  poles.  These solar panels have the highest output per square area in the industry due to the use of premium SunPower grade A+ solar cells at 23.7% efficiency (a measure of the amount of light energy converted to electrical energy).  Built for the challenging marine environment, these panels are built with heavy duty frames and sealants and come with industry standard waterproof MC4 connectors.   

Easy to install kits - We have made it easy to go solar by matching up the optimum combinations of solar panels, controllers and hardware.  Or, if you prefer, we will work with you to assemble a custom system to meet your specific needs.

​Below are just a few of our rigid solar panel kit options.

Top-of-Pole Mounted Marine Solar Panel Kits

rigid marine solar system kit with top of pole mount and optional lifting crane on sailboat
Marine Solar Panel with Optional Lifting Crane On Sailboat
Our top-of-pole mounting system enables manual tracking of the sun position for maximum panel performance and keeps the panel up and out of the way of the rigging.  Rotating or tilting the panel just several times a day to obtain an optimum sun angle can increase the panel output by as much as 30%.  This means more power from a smaller panel; ideal for the marine environment where space is limited.  Our systems are easy to install and remove.  In severe weather, simply tilt the panel horizontally or remove one bolt (or quick release pin), unplug two wires and lift the panel off the pole. Very popular setup on sailboats.

Select the kit that meets your needs or use our standard components to build your own system.

Our 100 - 140 watt marine solar panel kits are designed for the cruising sailor who has modest power requirements or who wishes to supplement the power generated by the engine alternator.  This system is ideal for powering electronics, lights, instruments and a small refrigerator.

Our 175 watt marine solar panel kits are designed for the cruising Sailor who has significant power requirements or who wishes to be completely independent of running the engine alternator while at anchor for extended periods.  This system is ideal for powering lights, instruments, computers, refrigerator and autopilot.


For even greater power requirements, our customers have purchased two 100 - 140 watt solar systems and mounted them on both sides of their sailboat's stern. 

See our Gallery of Installations and Customer Comments pages for pictures of our customer installations.

Our kits include:
  • High performance marine grade solar panel
  • Top-of-pole mounting system
  • Pole and pole brackets
  • Charge controller
  • Wiring
  • Instructions

Wondering what size of panel you need?  Use our Power Consumption Worksheet to figure out what size panel you need.

Our unique pole design provides the ability to attach an outboard motor lifting crane/hoist easily.  This handy feature is highly functional and reduces clutter in the stern. Great for cruising sailors to pull the motor off the dinghy for faster passages.
