With the completion
of the Radar Arch, the original bimini frame and canvas needed to be redone,
as it would not fit to, or match the Radar Arch profile. The goals in redoing
the bimini were:
>Have the stowed
bimini retract between the vertical Arch Struts, for a clean appearance
>Lower the canvas
windshield height for better aerodynamics and a sleeker appearance with
the canvas up
>Make all new canvas
with a color change from white to light brown
>Create a full
camper-back enclosure
>Use as many of
the original bimini frame parts, mounting points for the frame and canvas
mounts as possible
Having recieved
quotes from the local boat shops of $3500 to $6500, I decided, as anyone
who knows me or is familiar with this website knows, to do the work myself. |
