So there it is....5 times the shade and fit right in with tower bimini. 4 feet of shade in the water. Was going to buy a real extension but $180 and mounting points etc....thought about throwing umbrella at it and bought $15 one from walmart....too small so knee jerked and bought 10' one. Loved it and can hang out in back in water under tons of shade

Where do you store it while underway?
Pull it behind the boat. That thing looks HUGE! Bet it works great.
 
Fits easily in ski locker. I may find a storage bag for it but take 2 minutes to get out and set up, easier that putting bimini extension on. I also use a black fun noodle to secure it table let pipe to keep it from moving and can also move boat around islands at low speed with it up. I do ofcourse take it down for cruising and can also go up to 45 with the wake tower bimini....
