I’m thinking about putting a hard top Bimini on my 36 so that I can install solar panels. Also any thoughts links or ideas about cruising a 36.

Not looking to reinvent the wheel if somebody’s got a good idea.

Or just attach one or more to your soft bimini. This is a 64-watt panel from Solbian (the rigid panels total 95W). It came with attached zippers to match the zippers I added to the bimini.
