    Default Put some shade on the boat today


    Installed a bimini top today, tired of that sun beating down all day. Installed the pin on a slider so that it can be moved forward 3 feet to cover the front deck or back 3 feet to cover the deck right behind the console seats. I'm 6'-4" and I can walk around under it and it clears my head sitting on the front deck. Shown in the rear slider position.Name:  20170917_161937.jpg

    In the bright sunshine of the middle part of the year, shade is important in two places : over the fish & over the angler !!

    My fishing bud & I devised these setups for my boat :

    Boat Covers Direct. The sliders were $35 and the stainless steel hardware upgrade was $99, I bought the top of the line fabric, 8' long, 4 bow. Just under $700 all in.
