Well, I finally got around to taking some pics of the V with the new Bimini top. I'm not sure how I survives the past summers without it. Very nice top, thanks for the referal to GMI guys.

How much if you don't mind me asking. That looks great.

Yeah man.........very good value here with this top. If I remember it was $288 with shipping and all. That is with the sumbrella and the SS hardware upgrade and no rear support poles. I had the stuff to make my own supports.

I currently have the original 1991 bimini top on mine, with full enclosure canvas/isinglass. Everything is in top shape except for the bimini fabric itself. It has a couple holes and is just generally worn out after years of use. Do you think I can go to a canvas shop and have the fabric made to fit the current bimini support structure, or would I be better off just getting a whole new top?

Nipper, Any marine canvas shop should be able to replace the fabric on your old top but usually at a premium. I had a couple of quotes to replace my original fabric, and use my existing frame. The quotes ranged from $300 to $750 just for replacing the bimini material.
