When installing flexible solar panels on a yacht, we need to pay attention to the following points:

Choose the right location.flexible Solar panels need to be installed in a sunny location to improve their charging efficiency. This means choosing an unobstructed location for maximum solar collection. At the same time, the size of the solar panels, the curvature of the hull and the waterproof also need to be considered.

Determine the installation method. Flexible solar panels can be fixed to the hull with rivets or adhesives. Using rivets requires drilling holes in the hull, which may affect its waterproof and require additional sealing. Another common installation method is to use adhesive. Available in neoprene or silicone. This method has less impact on the tightness of the hull but requires ensuring proper cleaning of the surface and choice of adhesive prior to installation.

Handle wires and connectors. Reserve a charging port on the solar panel to connect it to the boat's battery. It is necessary to ensure that the wires are safe, waterproof and well fixed, with adequate protection and explosion-proof measures on the outside.

Perform testing and maintenance. After installing and connecting the wires, electrical testing is required to ensure the solar panels are working properly. During use, it is necessary to keep the surface of the solar panel clean and regularly check whether the wires and connections are safe and intact.

Before all installation, it will be more reliable and safer to choose an experienced installation expert. You'll also want to check local regulations to see if you need to obtain specific licenses or certificates, and to make sure your solar panels won't interfere with other equipment on your boat while sailing and at anchor.
