SOLAR BIMINI STRUCTURES FOR CENTRE COCKPIT YACHTS
Engineered protection, integrated solar performance
At Ocean Covers, we specialise in the design and construction of custom Bimini structures that integrate flexible solar panels into robust, marine-grade stainless steel frames. Our solar Biminis are tailored for centre cockpit yachts, delivering long-term cockpit protection while supporting sustainable energy generation—ideal for offshore cruising or extended stays aboard.
Built for Offshore Conditions
Every Bimini structure is fabricated from 316 stainless steel tube, with load-tested fixing points and internal backing plates to ensure reliability in exposed marine environments. Frames are designed for maximum strength while maintaining access to winches, pit, companionways and living areas. .
Integrated Solar Panel Support
We design our structures to accommodate flexible solar panels—typically high-efficiency brands such as Solbian. Zip-on canvas pockets provide clean panel integration and added protection to all cabling.
Marine-Grade Canvas & Stitching
Canvas components are crafted from premium marine yacht acrylic fabrics such as Sunbrella, secured with heavy-duty zippers and sewn using UV-stable Tenara thread. These materials are chosen for durability, clean aesthetics, and ease of maintenance. The canvas can be removed when not in use or stored for extended periods.
Custom Fit & Function
Every project is custom-designed to fit your boat, accounting for boom height, sail clearance, deck layout, and functional needs. Additional features—such as stainless ladders or handrails—can be included based on your requirements.
Ocean Covers delivers turn-key solar Bimini structures—from concept to installation—designed for performance, protection, and sustainability at sea.
