Solar panel boat rail mount.

The pole is attached to the stern rail s using our brackets. Each kit includes sturdy yet light weight aluminum mounting bars available in 21 5 8 or 26 1 2 lengths specifically designed for most solar panels a pair of heavy duty rail mount clamps and all the necessary stainless steel hardware to mount one solar panel to your rail. Rails running fore and aft create the base and athwartship rails can augment the frame if needed. Using concave post or fork mounts.

The top of pole solar panel mount is designed to set atop our 1 5 inch od stainless steel rotating pole. Every solar panel needs to be mechanically mounted and installation on a boat becomes that much more challenging due to the nature of structures available as well as the harsh salt water environment. They give you easy secure mounts for a solar panel frame that won t draw attention to itself. A custom pole height can be specified at the time of order.

Supported by a leg that extended 21in past the rail was not going to be feasible. We designed our saddle type post and fork mounts with solar panels in mind. Emarine is proud to be able to offer a variety of solar mounting hardware many of which we fabricate along with specialized hardware to support the installation of your solar panels. The method we had used to mount our smaller lighter panels was not going to work with these new monsters.

The saddle fittings bolt onto the top of the frame through the canvas of your bimini top or dodger. The standard pole height is 66 inches.
