Anyone keep the Bimini top open all summer? I have a covered slip and I’m thinking about just leaving the Bimini open on my 2022 212s from June to Sept to save a little time. Anyone done this? Does it drastically shorten the life of the canvass?

Like anything left in the elements and sun exposure will definitely shorten it's life.
I would opt for a moring cover. If your boat is very high sun won't effect it.
