I ordered a bimini top from iboats like yours, do you have any pictures of how and where exactly you mounted the hardware?

thanks.

aiian.

I'll take some pictures in the morning if you'd like. Basically all I did to align the bimini top correctly was to position the top in the down position, aft. I made sure that while the top is down, it would not interfere with the raising and lowering of the motor or interfere with the steering either. After I figured out where I wanted the top while in the down position, I marked the spot and installed the mounts. Once I had the mounts on both the port and starboard sides attached, I adjusted the four straps and marked off where I wanted the attaching points for the straps. It was an easy process and the only help was from my 5 year old (he is seven now).

I hope this helps.

Alright, I'm sure we can figure it out. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't going to be any tricky parts.
