Bimini for R31

[griervictoria]

I have just purchased a 2014 R31 and it did not come with a bimini. This is something I now would like to get installed. Is there a spec sheet for the factory installed ones that I could have someone locally make here on Vancouver Island? (I am talking about he one which folds up into a boot.) I assume it is too late to get a factory one sent out. Thank you

We opted for one locally built from Rob associated with Port Boat House (this gives us a fully enclosed cockpit based on what Sand Dollar II had originally done

Also have upper steering Bimini (a simple canopy ) done via Canoe Cove happily with that too

Quite happy with work

Dawn Marie and Frank,
Do you have a picture of your upper bimini "top"? A bit of shade to avoid baking my head on the flybridge would be nice. If simple, what was the approx. cost?
thanks, Corey

Hello Jim,

The top that Rob offers that several have installed wont fold as you mentioned. If you would like us to make you a bimini and frame, we could certainly do so. I believe Steve at Canoe Cove called me about this and I told him the same. We normally don't offer this but you are close enough to transport one over.

Best Regards,

Andrew Custis

Andrew, thanks for this. Can you email me a quote on this and could the guys at Canoe Cove fit it if you sent it ?
Would it be available in the blue color of the Ranger hull?
Other option is to have one made locally here
