FAQs

What is the recommended maximum speed for using the bimini top?

It is recommended to fold and secure the bimini top when your vessel's speed exceeds 25 mph to prevent wind damage.

What are the dimensions of the bimini top when deployed?

The bimini top has a length of 183 cm, a width that can be adjusted from 185 to 198 cm, and a height of 137 cm.

What material is the fabric made of?

The fabric is made of 100% polyester with a PU coating, making it UV- and water-resistant.

What is the frame made of?

The frame poles are made of anodized aluminum with a diameter of 25 mm.

Are all mounting accessories included?

Yes, mounting accessories are included. Eye hooks, mounting nuts, and knobs are made of marine grade stainless steel 316, while other accessories are made of stainless steel 304.

How should I store the bimini top when not in use?

When not in use, you should use the provided boot to protect the fabric. Fold the canopy neatly before storing it in the boot.

Can this bimini top withstand strong winds or heavy rain?

This bimini top is designed for protection against direct sunlight and light weather conditions. It is not intended for use in strong winds or heavy rain and should be folded down in such conditions.

Troubleshooting

Bimini fabric seems loose or saggy.

Check that all mounting points are secure and that the frame is properly assembled. Adjust the width to ensure the fabric is taut across the frame.

Hardware appears to be corroding.

While marine-grade stainless steel is resistant, prolonged exposure to salt and moisture can affect any metal. Clean the hardware with a soft cloth and fresh water after each use. Ensure the bimini is dry before folding.

Difficulty adjusting the width.

Ensure the frame poles are fully seated and that there are no obstructions. The adjustment mechanism should slide smoothly; if stiff, a light application of a silicone lubricant may help (ensure it doesn't stain the fabric).
