1995 Montauk Bimini - Stow Outside Bow Rail

Member Personal Page Posts: 62 Comments: 0 Joined: 04/02/11	I am looking for some shade on my 1995 Montauk 17. What size/brand bimini should I purchase to stow outside the bow rail? This is critical as I am always fishing the front deck and space is a premium. Thank you,

From around 1996 on, Mills used sliding tracks which allowed the Sun Top to be stored in front of the bow rail. I converted a couple of tops adding the slide tracks. I think this might have been a Cablea's top. http://www.whalercentral.com/infusion...?user_id=5 I have no idea what brand of top I had on my prior Montauk. http://users.sisqtel.net/jkriz/Montau...t-side.jpg I never got around to adding the slide tracks as I sold the boat.
