TRAILERING
High winds encountered during trailering your boat
can severely damage most weather covers. If an
extended trip at highway speeds is planned, the top
and other weather covers should be booted or
removed entirely. This will prevent damage and/or
loss. See Figure O1.
Figure O2: Bimini Top
A clear plastic visor is provided and once installed it
connects the forward windshield and the bimini top.
Side bimini curtains are also made of clear plastic for
visibility and connect the side portion of the windshield
to the bimini top. The helm area is protected from the
elements once the bimini top, forward windshield
connector and bimini side curtains are installed.
Camper Boot
The bimini top is factory installed, therefore, minimal
adjustment should be necessary.
Bimini Boot
To install the bimini top:
1)
2)
Attach the bimini frame using the ball and socket
mounts. See Figure O3.
Figure O1: Bimini & Camper Tops - Booted
Release the support pole and place in the forward
mount; adjust upward to make it easier to zip
canvas pieces.
NOTICE
DO NOT tow your boat at highway speeds
with weather covers in place. High winds
encountered during trailering your boat can
severely damage most weather covers.
Damage to weather covers incurred as a result
of trailering your boat is not covered under
warranty.

The bimini top is standard and provides cover/shade
