Who has done a front bimini?

[Guitarjesus]

Going to Havasu next month for a family wedding and we rented a house with a dock. My only issue is the 115 plus degree heat. I'm Irish!

Has anyone done a front bimini on their boat? Riding in an SX190, 2018.

Thanks everyone!

I have done it. It is a little cumbersome to install and put up. We have to drive 45 minutes at least to get to water and I don’t like driving with it on in the closed position. However it makes things 100% better in Havasu. It is difficult to find one that matches in color to the Yamaha grey. If I can more pictures or if I ever posted a thread I will reply with it. I ordered a King Bird and fittings from EBay and then did a bunch of modifications to get things to line up.

We also use simple spring clamps from Harbor Freight/Amazon to hold sarongs to the uprights on the tower and the bow bimini to create more shade. I am pretty white and have a a couple very pale kids so the shade and zinc based sunscreens are our friends. We spend numerous weekends a summer on the desert lakes and rivers, and per my wife it is the absolute best thing we have done to the boat.
