Thanks for the compliments Bradford,
That black bimini was in the V20 when I got it. I now it must collect heat, but because the bimini is not closed around, I can`t feel it. Were we ride, there is always a breeze, so I don`t feel the heat from it. I It is pretty sturdy, and believe it or not, no maintenance required. I never clean it, except for clean water from the water hose every once in a while. It stays clean somehow.
I am changing it for a blue one. I already have a blue extension made, that goes from the fwd edge of this bimini, to the bow hand rail, which we use when we sleep on the boat. That way we can leave the cabin door fully open even if rains. Works wonderfull. Will post pictures of it later. I will have the new full blue top made after this summer. I ran out of boat $ for now.
I like the blue top much more. It looks better, it looks more sea-going, and it can be seen better from far away which is good. If you notice, we are changing the trim color to blue, to match the new top. I will also paint the bottom blue.
Juan
