Bimini Top Installation Video

mine is held together with wire lock pins and 1 or 2 clevis pins.comes apart and folds up in seconds.now i just need a way to magiver some frame clips(the ones that keep the frame stacked so they don't rub).if anyone has any ideas,please share.

I may not completely understand what you mean by frame clips. I wrap a couple of velcro straps around the frames to hold everything together when folded up.

BTW, I just picked up side curtains for the windshield boat. I actually left the boat at the dealer while I was out of town on vacation so the canvass guy could make them. I look forward to having them this winter.

Edit: I like the idea of using a couple of clevis pins to make folding the top easier/quicker. Another thing for the ever growing boat "to-do" list.

I also use velcro straps but with a 4 bow the tops do not stack well up top by the vinyl and they rub.frame clips keep them all stacked on top of each other.

i dont like the way my top lays when droppd. i took a large pool noodle, cut it in half, slit it lenghtwise and wrap it over the frame when trailering or not using.. i might take the top off for the fall. but it really doesnt effect me or the back guy when fishing.

I would love to the results. I'm actually thinking about rigging up some hangers on mine to hang my hat and a small blue tooth speaker.

Decided to flip mine around this weekend and works great! Better centered and allows the back chair head clearance. I need to move the rear anchors up maybe six inches as the rear straps are maxed out.
