New Bimini

[garbubba]

Spent the weekend on the boat & noticed the bimini frame is cracking. It's an old bimini that came with the boat & I knew I'd have to replace it soon but I was hoping to get by this summer.

A few questions.

Any models that you recommend?

Any that I should stay away from?

Stainless or aluminum rails?

Anybody know where I can get a full cover?

Thanks,

Doug

A full incloser would be best coustom made. IMO

Just a bimi well I got mine from E&B Marine and it is good for what I want!! And it is Aluminum.

I would like a bimini for my Steplift. What size did you buy at E&B and how much was it? Thanks.

your height plus 6-8" less floor to mounting position is how tall a top to order...mine's about 6' front to back...stainless is great, but aluminum is fine...if it comes with strap supports, convert to stiff legs if you can...easy to do with some extra alum. tubing and plastic hardware...on the height thing I like to stand up a lot...(I'm 6'4") especially when docking, so also consider your tallest fishin' buddies...happy trolling
