Re: help with bimini?
When I was looking to do mine I wanted something that would fit under the tower, but yet I could still stand under. We do alot of water sports so ducking under every time to the stern wasn't an option. I also did NOT want to mount to the windshield just to be on the safe side, as windshield parts are super expensive if you can even find them. The bimini's they make that mount to the tower are a joke very small and twice the $$ so that was out as well. I took some pvc and a tarp and along with my wife and son was able to mock up a bimini using different heights, lengths, positions, etc. Once I found the set up that was just right I had the helpers hold it in position while I carefully measured everything. Ordered one from I boats and have been super happy with it for 3 years now, plus I saved a ton by not ordering a custom tower bimini. It got here quickly, I had it installed in about 1 1/2 hours and now have great shade. I live in utah and certian lakes around here can be relentless as far as the sun and heat go. I drive a 20' crownline and went with the 6' model which has worked out well.
