paulg Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Hi all, Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts or tips on a DIY canopy. The boat is shown in the photo. Is it best to come off the top of the windscreen or to build a frame up high similar to the type of cover a centre console boat has ? Where can i purchase 90 deg aluminium elbows ? What is the best method for fittting the canvas to the aluminium tubing ? Can you purchase clips or will i have to sow the canvas over itself and feed the tubing through it ? Mr RB.

Gday there, You can buy a bolt-on bimini cover with clear plastic sides. They come in different sizes for different sized boats. Check bias boating or any trailer boat seller. We fitted the same plus false floor and rod holders etc to a mates 8ft tinny and it came up a treat. Send through some completed pics when your done!!
