If you say what you are trying to accomplish, there maybe some better ideas than removing those panels

New boat had a leak into the salon dripping from the headliner. Dealer said it was coming from the windshield - said he fixed it. Now there is brown discoloration where the leak was. Dealer refused to take pictures of the repair and when asked about mold remediation and what was growing up there he refused to answer.
Im worried about a mold infestation and want to inspect the area myself.

You can likely use endoscope camera, pull out the closest bulb, insert the camera and inspect everything.

Lhsrris,
Can't answer for the very new models but all the ceiling linings on our 2014 - 575 are held up with industrial Velcro. You need to apply a lot of force to get the "peeling" of the Velcro started but they will come down. I found putting them back up was a challenge and ended up having to use a length of wood and hitting this with a soft hammer to get the industrial Velcro to successfully catch again. As Marsella mentioned you could use a endoscope to look at the connection. You should be able to see the fixing - Velcro.

Live would be much easier with velcro but I heard Hanse stopped using it, they are glueing everything these days

Standard velcro, self adhesive type will often peel away in high temperature areas but on our boat the industrial Velcro is glued and then stapled and over 12 year we have not had a problem. I have seen on other boats a clip system used where you use a sucker to pull a corner at a time down. I think gluing would be a major step backwards if that is what they are doing now.

Yes that is what my Hanse rep explained when I asked them how to remove the headliner. To be exact, this is Hanse 458, 2020

So - confirmed. On a 2024 hanse 460 the headliner is glued on. Looking throught the light socket, there is a fiberglass space and the panels are upholstered and glued to the underside of the fiberglass.
Still.not sure how water is getting into the area - the dealer revealed the windshield but it doesn't seem to penetrate the deck structure. Does anyone know what lies beneath this removable panel on deck?
