    Bimini for 200

    Anyone have recommendations on the size of a bimini for a Nautique 200 (no tower)? I have seen some that appear to be longer than others and would like the longer if it doesn't interfere with anything. How about where to buy?

    Check with John at Tower Biminis. 408-848-4333. They have a nice design / size for the 200.

      I also recommend the Tower Bimini's design for the 200. Here is an example:

        Another vote for tower biminis. They have two types depending on closed or walkthrough windscreen. The walkthrough version is slightly taller to allow the centre section to open/close with the bimini up. There are various options for colours, patterns, fixings and support poles etc. Great quality.

          I have used GMI Top Designs on my last 3 boats. Not going to be super fancy like Tower bimini, but very well made and quite a bit cheaper. It is similar to the one from the factory. You can get any size, color and options you want.

            I'm glad to hear GMI is back shipping tops. I have used them on my 2006 thru 2009 196's, but when I tried to order one from them for my 2010 200, it appeared they had gone out of business. I agree that they make a quality top that is less expensive than the TowerBiminis tops, just not as many flashy options.

              Strange, that's where I got my top for my 2010 200.

                    Any recommendations on size of the top for a 200? Looks like they are larger that what most on the 196's.

                      i dont know how it works with out a tower. all i can recommend is; my 07 220 SANTE came with a under tower bimini. it made the boat look amazing, way better than with out it. my problem was it was too low, infringing**? on head room under the tower. i am 5'10 and it was just a bit too low to be comfortable. i completely removed it and all the mounts b/c i hated it.

                      think about it.
