Homemade bimini

I believe that the vinyl awning "rope" will adhere very well. I would do destructive testing, as I did with, clear vinyl, and multiple layers of the Shelter Rite fabric. Basically HH 66 fuses the vinyl surfaces. IF you wanted extra strength , just put in a few basic large foot rivets every foot or so. and glue to both sides of vinyl, (second "under the top" 3" piece to the Bimini top.)

I'd like to think C-Sharp stole my idea with his Poor Man's Bimini but I'm sure that's not the case. Here's my "completed" project. If I can find a deal on canvas I'll use that but for now, this 6x8 tarp should do the trick. Hopefully over the winter I can have an actual bimini installed.

$150 from Amazon. We need to move it back and make a connector piece to make it easier to get in and out when it is deployed. The fabric isn't the greatest, but will last a while and then we have a pattern to make a new top out of Sunbrella.

Here’s a cheap cockpit shade option. If it rains I’ll put the boat hook up as a center pole. Pics in my album.
