I do hit my head but raising to the highest setting does lesson the blow!

You have a 2014 correct?
Just for clarification, I was wondering if that was still an issue with the 2015's. I'm not that tall ~5'8"

The bimini top does not come back as far as previous year models so hitting your head is not as likely.

Still not the quickest Bimini to deploy, but a lot faster than previous years!! Those zippers on the 2010 - 2014 are a pita!

First day with my new boat and my first battle was with the Bimini Top. I tried everything but the two pole were on the top of the Bimini. So I gave up and took the two poles off the front bar and the rotated the bar and reattached the two poles. Then I could set up the Bimini... Looks correct, what you think? Had anyone else had to do this??

The hard part is rolling it back up and zippered into the boot. And it is very small. Hardly enough shade.

When we bought our first Yamaha, the small Bimini on the LS was the reason we went with the limited at the time....much bigger top....which helps a lot in the hot Florida summers.
