Ayuh,... Figure out where ya wanta mount it,..
Measure how far apart the points are, then how long ya want it, 'n how high...
Then click the links here at iboats, 'n buy the color in the size ya need...
When it gets there, open the box, pull out the hardware, 'n geta screwin'...
You'll be out Stylin' in No time....

Re: yet another bimini question

Just take your time and pick a nice day to do it...for tools you need a measuring tape, screwdrivers (do not use power tools...you will do damage...you want to feel the torque you apply), a pencil and before you do any drilling measure and measure and did a mention measure again and only then drill.BTW pick a good area on your boat and make sure it clears you standing up and gear on board when is lowered and stored in it's boot, also you need another pair of hands. After we installed our bimmini we found out that some extra straps would have been nice but we got those afterall from our local MEC store (Mountain Equipment Cooperative).It was fun installing ours and all hardware was there...i could have sworn that some will be missing...have fun and enjoy.Post some pictures when done.
Thank you,
Dan
