Tower Bimini Group Buy

[bkhallpass]

According to many on PN Towerbimini is one of the best out there, that said... Is anyone familiar with the tops that Adlee in Riverside CA. makes? They were reccomended to me by the guy who fabricated the lower legs of my FCT and at one time i believe he worked for Calif Correct Craft. Their base price is about $550 plus $50 for a stripe. They are sunbrella w/ clamps to your tower. Any feedback would help.

Darrel, I don't know anything about Adlee, but I did check out their website. From the photos presented, it looks like their tower bims still involve some type of nylon strap, secured to the gunnel of the boat. Maybe they've changed design, but that's what the photos seem to depict.

The towerbimini.com is great because all six mounting points are on the tower. They use clamps, so you don't need to drill holes in the tower. The bim is very rigid, and is the largest surface area I've seen mounted within the tower frame (both width and length). It's a little awkaward to take up and down, but still it takes less than 5 minutes. I don't tow with mine up on the freeway, but I do leave it up when I'm just trailering around town. Very sturdy.

Thanks for your input BKH, Yes, i called Adlee and they use the clamps and a nylon strap. I'm guessing 4 clamps and a nylon strap on each side for tension. I think the strap can be clipped to the tower as an alternative to the gunnel. My FCT tower had been drilled for bimini mounting points already.
Looks like we have about 10 or so right now, just a handful from the 15% disc. I'm still on the bubble, w/ the good discount theres still close to 100 bucks difference. In addition, i need to have the tower feet cut out and "velcroed" on my boat cover. Decision by end of Feb.

After speaking with Laura, there are only 5 confirmed orders so far so if your thinking about getting a bim this would be the time. I know alot of people are still deciding. Thanks for getting this hookup with Tower Biminis.
I know it will be worth it.

in hope of picking up a few more buyers I posted about the group buy on correctcraftfan. FYI Towerbimini does make deck mount tops, so those w/o towers may be interested too.

Just placed my order.

Nice.... Keep 'em rollin. I ordered the charcoal grey with an orange tapered stripe polised fitting. The orange is a little brighter than the orange trim on my boat but being in the sun I'm sure it will fade out a bit.

[joelhern2]

nice looking boat right there....the warm weather is right around the corner for us midwest boys.

OK, people, I just ordered mine from Laura and I was #7 confirmed.

Helpful hint: I was going to order a bimini last year and got the color scews from sunbrella, this makes it super easy to decide what colors you want and their will be no screw ups. WARNING! DO NOT go off the colors on the website, call Laura and she'll beable to help you out. No one needs to be disappointed. Keep ordering fellas we are 1/2 way to 15%!
