Bimini side shade

[LukePrinsloo]

@LukePrinsloo Thanks! The frame is factory stock for an 07 AR230. We just had it covered in Sunbrella and zippers sewn in to accept curtains/shades.

I am actually considering adding a second bimini to mount behind the tower and spread shade over the back of the boat.

I added an Anchorshade to the back of my 19ft'er with great results. Significantly less cash than a bimini extension.

here is the one I've been eyeballing. I'd like it to stay up pretty much the entire day.

Here's my shade extension I added this season.

The shade itself stretches and has multiple anchor points that could allow it to cover nearly any section of the boat.

Bump...I mentioned this in a previous post here last year. But the sun felt extra hot out on the Yamaha yesterday. Air temp. was 95° real feel was 101° water temp. was 79° with a 8mph wind. We are really happy with the "bimini side shade/privacy curtains". We did not set the stern anchor and let the boat swing on the bow anchor. Out on either end of the swing, exposes the cockpit under the bimini to the hot sun. Loving how the shade screens knock down the intensity. Glad Willow thought of having them made two years ago when we had the bimini done. Makes being on the boat in those conditions bearable. Now we need to get one for the front of the bimini, or a zippered bimini extension over the bow while at anchor, tried a towel and bimini clips there yesterday but it blocked the wind.
