I recently upgraded from our 1989 Sport 15' to a 1985 Revenge 25'. It's a little heavier! Anyway, the original bimini top and frame were stolen 2 owners ago and the man I bought it from took his 22 Revenge frame and top and put it on this boat, but it does not match the original Revenge 25 window and side panels. Does anyone know how one might go about finding an original OEM frame for the bimini top? Thank you.

if it fits, it fits and the eisenglass windows will just need to be fitted. How do you know the original frame is any different and many did not buy biminis from the dealer as they were very expensive compared to a custom made one or a generic one. In other words you will be wasting your time looking, just have somebody make new windows that fit better if you want them for cold/rainy days.
Thanks for the replies. I spoke to Mills. They are coincidentally in my town. They only will build the smaller version of a top that they call a "Sun Top" that has 2 overhead spars instead of 3.. I know that what I have is smaller (its from a 22 Revenge) because the thieves only got away with the frame and the blue top, so I still have the plastic window, side and rear panels in pretty much new condition, that came with the boat 30 years ago. When I try to install them it is immediately clear that they are meant for a bigger bimini top. I will keep looking for people who might be able to make a new set. I wonder how many OEM Revnege 25 WT bimini tops are out there rotting in some yard or garage.

I think I need new glasses. Its a 1995, not 1885 Revenge.
I repeat.
The original suppler was Mills.
You have a 1985 Revenge 25' Walk Thru
See my post #2 and order the frame or the entire frame and canvas.
Or, order it from some other independent supplier which would be aftermarket and not original.
Please, you do not have a 1995 nor do you have a 1885 Revenge.
At this point it does not matter.
Order what you want for your Revenge either original or aftermarket. 1985
