    Over the tower bimini

    Check out the attached photo of the over-the-tower bimini we're making in Denver, NC. Let me know what you think. We want to hear a little feedback before we expand production.

    Do you have any more pictures? Like one from a little further away, one collapsed, etc.? Looks interesting.

      Looks very nice and well made, but it looks like it may be a little to high to keep a lot of shade on the boat.

        I would suggest you replace the straps with fixed arms, otherwise it looks good.

        How does it fold up?

        What's the price, I just ordered one for just under 6 bills.

          It folds up so easy. It unzips from the tower in the back, and the front bows fold up to the tower. Fits great to the front of the tower and covers with the boot.

            How is it mounted to the tower ? Clamps or Drilling thru the tower ?

            I cant see clearly from the picture, but it looks like its drilled thru. Can you confirm ?

            If you can add more pics how it looks when its folded, that would be great.

            Thanks

              I like it. I would like to see more pic's of it. Does it come in contact with the light on top of the tower (05 models)?

                Yeah, need more pics but if it offers more shade and headroom when collapsed you've got a winner!

                  It angles down enough in the front to give good shade coverage. As for the light on top...we make a cut for the light to come through and sew a spray welt to deter water. There is an 18 oz. reinforcement sewed along the back so the ski rope doesn't tear it up.

                    Yeah, we drill into the tower to hold the hinges for the front bows and the eyelets on the front for the tension straps. We use stainless steel parts, right down to those 8 screws.
