    Best bimini top for 12' X 48" boat ?

    Thanks for the reply mrdrh99 . I looked at similar biminis but that particular model and many others were too wide to fit my 48" requirement . I do like the idea of being able to keep it on the boat .

    Best bimini top for 12' X 48" boat ?

    Thanks for the replies , fellas . Big Wheel , that's a pretty cool concept you've got there . To be clear , I won't be fishing while I'm under the shade , this would be more for puttering around with the wife . Even when I fish from this boat , I mainly troll . I don't like throwin and...

    Best bimini top for 12' X 48" boat ?

    Hey all , I just wondered if anyone has a Bimini top for a small boat that they really like . This Florida sun can be a bit much at times . My boat is a Sea Nymph 12-A , so it's 12' X 48" . I would prefer as much length as possible . Thanks for your input .

    Yeah man , thanks . It may be an unpopular opinion , but I am leaving the patina as it is . Back in '04 , Hurricane Charlie blew a tree down across her belly and dented her up pretty good . Her dents were beaten out as best as could be by amateurs and she doesn't leak a drop . So she's got...

    Hello all ! I have spent many hours trying to find out the manufacturer of my old Sears 11' 6" X 48" semi-V .(1956) I run a Merc 9.9 on her and she really moves . I love the cast aluminum Art Deco details and the hull lines . Here are some pics. Thanks for any and all info you may have .
