I have a 2018 AR240. Not happy with the OEM Bimini Top and looking for a way to extend the bimini further aft for more shade.
Any ideas on how to get more shade all the way to the rear seats?
 
Have an extension made for you. Here is a link with contact information to someone on the east coast who remade my custom top, extension and boot. You would need to have the support bar for the extension made by someone else.

also attached is a link to a video on my Bimini top. Be forewarned, each Sunbrella part costs roughly $500, the support rib and mounts could cost another $500 (not sure since mine is from a 2006 oem extension for an ax 230). Cost aside, many of my guest and myself think it’s the best modification I’ve done to the boat.

Thank you for the quick reply. I’ll look into them.
