Hello- I have a 2003 bayliner with a monster tower on it. We just got into boating this summer and have become wakeboard junkies. The sun is killing the dog right now and we want to get a bimini top. Monster Tower's top is $500+ and we would like to find a cheaper alternative, but something that keeps the boat clean looking. I've been reading about the Taylor Made universal tower bimini tops, but I'm not positive they will work. I've contacted a dealer who referred me to Taylor Made and they were not much help either. Has anyone purchased the same combo or found a good (low cost) bimini that will work with the Monster Tower?


Thanks,

J

I would just make some measurments and call some bimini manufacturers.

I have a custom built tower and added a bimini and it worked out very nice. We used GMI top design (gmitopdesign.com). We got a Sunbrella top for $250 shipped. With some basic measurements they were very helpful in determining which top was the right size for our application.

Measure the width of the boat where you would like to place the bimini mounts and also measure the inside of the tower about where you want the top to ride. That should be all the info you need to talk with some manufacturers. You'll also want to have in mind how tall and long you want the top to be.
