Boat Bimini Tops

Enjoying the sun is a big part of boating, but too long exposure to the sun may ruin the party. Bimini tops are designed to partially cover the cockpit creating a shaded area to hide from the harmful UV rays and the rain. We have these add-ons in a variety of sizes and styles. The choice of materials is important as it determines how long your top will last. Consider UV-protected, water-resistant or waterproof specialty fabrics. The available textiles include canvas, marine-grade vinyl, acrylic, high-tensile-strength polyester, and composites. A popular option is Sunbrella, a solution-dyed acrylic fabric that resists fading and offers excellent water-repellent properties.

Frames are typically made from anodized aluminum that is protected against corrosion and is strong enough to resist winds. For boating in salt waters, consider choosing from boat Bimini tops with authentic stainless steel bows. Nylon fittings are included in the package, but stainless steel fittings are the preferred option. Colors and prints are more factors to consider, simply because you want your new equipment to not only be functional and durable but look great on your boat, too.
