I didnt read all these posts, just sharing info in case it helps someone. I sent out a brand new OEM bimini top to Sew Fine in Oklahoma to be used for a template to make me a black bimini top. If anyone is also interested, please contact Chuck at Sew Fine. He has recovered some seat cushions for me and others and done a great job, for reasonable prices.

Thank you! Mine is a 2012. I’m not sure if it’s the same Bimini as yours or not. Does anyone know for sure what changed between years?

I'm not sure if the shape changed, but they went from web straps in the rear to the hard stabilizers. So the chance of the shape changing is great.

Piney, can I also get his name and number. I’ve had an OEM ordered since February. They keep pushing delivery back as they are on “back order”. Last estimated delivery date they sent this morning was 7/5. What a joke.

I posted a few years back on my custom bimini from Dan in CA.
He does fantastic work! I had him build a complete top with extension plus a new boot for my 212X. Here is his info:

I just spoke to the guy @piney1 referred me to. He may make a template of my boot which would allow him to make the same for anyone that wants one. Again, with this boot you can leave the Bimini canvas attached to the tower so it’s easy to deploy and stow. No need to unzip the 4 flaps and stow it all in boot detached from the tower.

Hi guys I'm new here but have owned my 2013 242 LS since new. Figured it was time to replace my bimini and came across this thread. @piney1 would you be willing to share your contact info for the bimini replacement with me? I would greatly appreciate it😁

Hey @DrugMoney! I just heard you were trying to reach me. The area code was wrong. My number is 843-297-7009. Give me a call. I’ll be glad to talk anytime. Thanks! It’s 10:15pm here now. I’ll be up until around 11pm. Thanks! Look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks for the recommendation! Just a slight correction on my phone number. The area code was wrong. It’s 843-297-7009.

George - Mike here, glad you joined the forum! Even more glad that you made that template for the 242LS.
Be well.
