The Australian agent Multihull Solutions has done quite a bit of work on Bimini design (the FP design only covers the seat area). Have some pictures if you r interested.

Thank you; that would be greatly appreciated. I’m not finding many resources for info on the Lipari vs our last Lagoon, or Leopards. If you (or maybe another member you’d recommend have any pics or suggestions for a solar and lithium install, I’d love to hear/see it!

Thx so much
Lee

For Lithium I put them under the aft port bunk - think this is where FP put the factory installed generator. Need to cut the fibreglass and build a ply box and cut & wrap the foam to fit the changed space (I got about 80 - 90% of the flotation foam back in). Installed 4 x 100Ah lithium plus inverter plus 2 x DC to DC chargers and 2 x MPPT chargers. Could have fitted in another 2 batteries by making space slightly bigger but 400Ah is working well for us. For solar panels built a targa arch set up that is level with the rear of the cockpit roof to take 4 x 300w panels. Also fitted a solar water heater behind the helm seat. Will send photos of this too. PM me with yr email address.

Oh my; I’ve never won a lottery before! 😁
If you should have a digital version of a manual that would also be a blessing. This one seems to have lost hers!

Thx so much!
