At any rate, if you're looking for support poles, I highly recommend these guys.. fast shipping, fair prices and the bimini I got from them was a top quality unit for the price. And I love the 1" double walled tubing they use for their frames. Very, very strong.


Thanks Destroyer!!..you mighta just turned me on to a new top!!...you say these guys are legit??...

UPDATE...she's on the way!!...no idea I could get a new top that cheep...Thanks again, Destroyer...

The fabric is not the worlds best/thickest kinda stuff, but it's good and it's waterproof, and for the money I figured that if I got 3 years out of it I'd be happy... the quality of the frame is top notch though...sturdy, good hardware, etc etc. I think you'll be pleased with what you get :)

I'll picture/post what comes in the mail...having had a flimsy frame in the past, this one sounds pretty good to me...:clap:

Sorry it took so long to get back....alas, no the bimini cover will not fit on with the rocket launcher installed as is. Its only the one small support on the ends that prevent the cover from slipping over completely. If I like it I'm pretty sure all that would need to be done is slit the sides of the boot up a couple of inches and then have the raw edges sewn up. Hard to explain but hopefully you get the idea.

Thanks for reporting back. Looks like a nice temporary solution until I can afford a hard-top.
