FAQs

What material is the canopy made of?

The canopy is made of 600D polyester with a PU coating, which provides UV and water resistance.

What is the diameter of the aluminum poles?

The aluminum poles have a diameter of 25 mm.

What are the dimensions of the bimini top?

The overall dimensions are 243 cm in length, adjustable width from 230-244 cm, and 137 cm in height.

What speed should I avoid when using the bimini?

It is recommended to fold the canopy when the vessel speed exceeds 25 knots.

Are the mounting accessories included?

Yes, the delivery includes mounting accessories such as eye hooks, mounting nuts, and knobs, all made of stainless steel 316 marine grade, along with screws and extra straps.

What should I do if I notice rust on the fittings?

While the fittings are marine-grade stainless steel 316, it is best practice to rinse them with fresh water after use in saltwater and dry them thoroughly to maintain their appearance and longevity.

How should I clean the bimini canopy?

Clean the canopy using a mild soap and water solution. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before storing.

Troubleshooting

Bimini frame feels unstable.

Ensure all frame sections are securely connected and that the straps are tightened appropriately. Check that the mounting points on the boat are firm.

Canopy is not taut.

Adjust the tension on the nylon straps. Ensure the frame is correctly assembled and providing adequate support.

Water pooling on the canopy.

Verify that the canopy is installed with a slight slope to allow water runoff. Check for any obstructions or damage to the fabric.

Stainless steel fittings show signs of discoloration.

Although marine-grade, rinse fittings with fresh water after exposure to saltwater and dry thoroughly. Minor discoloration may occur over time but should not affect structural integrity.

Sidewalls do not fit correctly.

Confirm that the sidewalls are attached to the correct mounting points on the bimini frame and boat. Ensure they are oriented properly.
