Dedicated Marine has been building hartop biminis for years. They offer beautiful ergonomic Bimini Hardtops for Leopard, Lagoon, Fountaine Pajot, and Bali catamarans. These aftermarket products are in line with the high quality of the boats. They manufacture the biminis right here in the United States. The hardtop biminis enhance the already well-appointed catamarans.
Having a bimini is very useful and not you may be able to have one at a lower cost. Chris and Peggy over at Dedicated Marine have recently alerted us that there are various tax credits for catamaran hardtops with solar panel gantries.
Chris says: “The purchase of a hardtop for your solar panels renders the hardtop sales tax free in Florida. The hardtop is deemed the necessary mounting area for the solar panels. If you choose a solar panel gantry, it is tax free on its own”.
This from Renogy.com; “The investment tax credit (ITC), also known as the federal solar tax credit, allows you to deduct 26 percent of the cost of installing a solar energy system from your federal taxes. Taking advantage of the federal tax credit can mean thousands of dollars in savings for you and your family. The ITC can be applied to both residential and commercial systems, and there is no cap on its value”.
It certainly is worth a look if you are in the market to fit solar panels. We highly recommend that you contact Chris at info@biminihardtop.com. Mention Catamaran Guru for superior service and the best prices!
