210 Bimini Top -Recommendations

[rickym20]

looking to get another Bimini done and looking for the go to shop that will make it look like it belongs. The top I got it with doesn’t work for shade to well and looking to get another covering more area to help keep the kids from burning up. I seen some this past weekend that looked great.
I live in Temecula But don't mind traveling for the right shop. Thank you in advance for your help

Something like this is what I’m after.

I would start with custom canvas in Montclair. Pricey but excellent. There are a couple in havasu people have spoken well about as well

I should have done this in the first place and searched old threads but looks like that was the spot recommended the most after reading them. Thank you I will stop by there early next week.

Custom canvas did the Bimini and towing cover on my 21 in 1991 and they are both still perfect.
Just had them do the cover on my conquest.
Yes “pricey” but if it lasts 30 years, quite the bargain

From the pic, it looks like yours is too high as well as not adjusted correctly.

Yeah you could be right. Next one will be a little lower to shoot for a sleeker look. This one does have some adjustments that can be messed with but didn’t like the coverage. This was our First trip with the Bimini up to test it out.

We have two covers from them and our Bimini, all have been great. Added bonus we found was our cover got really dirty and I called and asked the best process for washing them, she told me to bring it in and they would wash and hang dry, while it was there they sewed up a couple little spots for us. Cost like $80 if my memory is correct, but it came out good as new....they also have a template for the 210, if you don't want to tow the boat up there, but it does not fit as well as the original that was hand cut to fit the boat.

This is how Custom Canvas did mine. Bimini and cover were done in 95'. When I bought the boat I had new fabric put on the bimini but the cover is original from 95'.
Ultimately though I like it best with the bimini down, I feel more confident at speed

Mesh strip?

Mesh strip?

Yes.

 

[Runs2rch]

Yes.

Makes all the difference.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of "bubble top biminis" LOL. It's much more forgiving with airflow if your angle adjustment isn't right.

Exactly. I have ours adjusted like yours. Just a hair down in the front.

I highly recommend Leader accessories 3 bow bimini top, this was great for a day or just a couple of hours on the water. In the blistering hot sun this bimini top was perfect for the family. This bimini is easy to set up in seconds. I do really like the storage cover when the bimini top is not in use. Good strong big zipper to close up for safe storage from the elements of weather. Also the canvas materials seems to be water resistant since the rain drops just bead up and roll away. I do wish this bimini top came with all stainless hardware. The main middle pole connections are a durable plastic, but can only be installed in one direction and on the certain side of the boat. Make sure to predrill the holes for the stainless steel screws when installing into an aluminum boat. The heads of the screws will pop right off. This bimini top is a simple assembly and was ready to install in minutes.

Seam dreams did mine in Havasu. Quality work but since you live in Temecula custom canvas in Montclair did All the Hallett’s. Quality work as well. I wish in did mine like post 2 with more shade but Saw the post of it after I got mine done on my vector. Learning from my mistake: height makes a difference also. Lower the top more shade and longer the top will also get shade. I made both mistakes . Mine was lower on the original so I had my top just a tad higher. Got tired of hitting my head all the time when I got up out of the seat. I also wish I made it longer to cover the entire seating area. This was all my doing not the shops fault. They did a quality job and was very pleased. As you can see in this photo the sun still gets in the seating area. Yes angle of the sun makes a difference and at times the whole seating area will get shade from time to time. Hope this helps you out
