I installed four Arco Solar 45w solar panels on the existing bimini. Didn't want a separate estrcture for them. The only thing that the pics are not showing are a couple of stainless pipes that go from the stern side of the panels, to the stern pulpit. These were added in order to make the structure more rigid, and turned out to be a great adition.
I can even move back .the front part of the bimini for a full sunbath, afternoon sailing, or ocasional racing.
The charge current is controlled by a Morningstar dual battery bank controller.
My batteries are always topped!!!
