Flexible solar charging kits
Flexible panels are the neatest option and can fit directly to your deck surface. Our kits are based on long thin-film Unisolar panels - which look fantastic, and come with an adhesive backing - or conventional crystalline silicon flexible panels with efficient Sunpower cells. (Choose the waterproof controller option specifically for marine environments).

Framed solar charging kits
Kits based on framed solar panels are the best value option - and they can be mounted at an angle to get more sun. The Panasonic kit is a very popular choice for narrowboats. Although it's more expensive, the more efficient cells means that it takes up much less space. However, if you are looking for the best value and don't mind a larger panel, go for the Sapphire 250W kit, which is one of our largest kits!

Mounting options for framed solar panels
Our tilt mount is a great option for larger framed panels, as it can be adjusted to catch the best sun. However, if you don't mind a little less power and prefer the framed panel to be flat on the narrowboat roof, you can use the glue-down solar corner mounts set.
