Where does solar fit in your future?

if you're contemplating getting on board with solar then SunPower & Maxeon is the smart place to start. Built with the highest efficiency solar cells it means more power in less space, pretty important when "roof space" is a premium aboard.


We have put together a list of 49 recent solar installs from our customers so that you can better see how much solar is being installed aboard and get an idea of what might work for your boat.

As panel selection has changed over the years you may see some panels listed that are no longer available. Always check with us to see what is in stock and ready to go, or just head over to our shop


Maybe you have a Catalina 42 or a Leopard 44 and it might be nice to see what other owners with the same boat have installed for solar panels. Sometimes it's a little easier to copy someone else's install but please note this list is intended as a reference only, maybe you have a different battery bank voltage aboard, or maybe you don't have an arch installed on the stern to add large fixed frame solar panels to (just yet!) or maybe you have bimini windows you don't want to block.


At Sun Powered Yachts we're here to help you go solar, we offer free consultations and are happy to chat through your planned install and help answer any questions you may have.





For the full updated list of SunPower & Maxeon solar installs head to our install list page


If you don't see your boat/install listed feel free to drop us a quick email info@sunpoweredyachts.com with details about how much solar you added aboard. Also head over to our install gallery where we post photos of our customer's installs or you can find regular updates on social media - Facebook, Twitter, Instagram
