Collection: Rigid Solar System Kits

Our premium rigid marine solar panels are designed to be the perfect addition to your marine vessel. Ideal for mounting on arches, dinghy davits, side and stern rails, cabin tops, and poles, these panels offer unparalleled versatility and performance.

Superior Efficiency and Performance

Harness the power of the sun with our solar panels, which boast the highest output per square area in the industry. This remarkable efficiency is achieved using premium SunPower grade A+ solar cells with an impressive 23.7% efficiency. This means more of the sun's energy is converted into usable electrical power, maximizing your energy yield even in limited space.

Built to Withstand Marine Environments

Crafted for the harsh and unpredictable marine environment, our solar panels are constructed with heavy-duty frames and advanced sealants. This robust build ensures longevity and reliability in salty, wet, and challenging conditions. Additionally, the panels are equipped with industry-standard waterproof MC4 connectors, ensuring a secure and watertight connection every time.

Top-of-Pole Mounted Marine Solar Panel Kits

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 pages for pictures of our customer installations.

    Heavy Duty Panels For The Win

    Installed 1200watts of panels on my 56' commercial fishing boat in Kodiak Alaska, with salt spray and harsh winters I hardly run my genset. Installation was a breeze with using silicone to mount them. Most the boats in my family fleet have them now and we are all saving big on the fuel bill! Couldn't be happier with the purchace.

    Easy Install - Great Performance

    I worked with Tom last year to design a system for my sailboat; the dialog and information was very detailed and helpful in helping determine my system needs and completing the installation. Once ordering, the kit arrived in a timely manner and very complete. The install was very straightforward and Tom provided additional information as needed. After the install I took off on a 7 month cruise of British Columbia. The system worked perfectly during my trip. I’m very happy with the equipment and support from CMP and Tom. I highly recommend !
