which pole are you talking about? I lost one of my support poles for my Bimini for my 222X and I was able to find all of the parts needed and make even better poles then the factory ones. Look nicer and stronger. If it's the same, I can show you all of the parts I had to buy. It was less than $100 for everything.

I had a local place here fabricate a whole bimni for just slightly more than that.... I'd see if a local place can make you a new leg or possibly two better ones.

What model again?? I can find them for the S's and X's here. Item #7 or 8? Or do you mean #4. 2023 Yamaha 222 S (HXT1800EY) Bimini Top / Carpet | Yamaha Sports Plaza

It would be cheaper to buy the fittings and a piece of 7/8" s.s. or aluminum if you want oem and make your own, if just a straight piece. You can get on-line or a local West Marine. Straight tubing supports are easy, even using s.s.
I made these (2) s.s. 1" Bimini supports w/ fittings for around $90.
