I have a 37.5 Legend, which came from the factory eqipped with a flexible solar panel mounted to the top of the cabin. It no longer works and I am considering replacements. Are there any owners out there with similar arrangements. If so, what did you do with yours? Replace it? Remove it?

Hello Jon.
So you probably have a Sovonic MA-21 panel. I too am looking to replace mine as well as add additional panels. I'll be watching this thread carefully to see what others recommend.
PS, let me know if you want a copy of the documentation I received from Hunter Marine regarding the original panel. Also the Sovonic company recently filed BK protection.

I am dealing with the same issue at the moment.........so I have phoned and searched hi and low and i even called hunter....I cannot find the exact fit....
so I figure it was just to charge the starting battery and there are alot of other solar options to charge the batterys.............
what I have done is elliminate the panel and I am filling the hole in with FG and wood...............
I have seen other fill in the area with dark plastic which is cool........
good luck

Thanks to everyone for the quick and helpful replies. Not sure what I will do, but will likely try to remove the deck cover over the lines to check the wiring. In all honesty, I hope to install fixed panels over the bimini, so perhaps the real question is how to finish off the deck space left by the existing panel and frame.
