My wife the boatstress (seamstress)

[justason]

Our OEM bimini on our 2009 212x did nor fair well towards the end of last summer. My wife bought some nice royal blue Sunbrella material off Ebay (10 yards / $110). she salvaged the zippers and used the original as a pattern. took a couple weekends, but BOOM !

mounted the new one back on the boat this past weekend. Color compliments the boat just fine ! She's making a new pouch for it now . New pouch will have an adder for the swim deck extension !

Huge bonus over a purchased gray one (cha-ching) !!

She deserves a back rub and a day without the kids.

She should start selling Bimini replacements!

first ones always the hardest but i told her having a color match option would be a huge positive in making more. Then again we only have this one pattern

I am sure others would send their old tops for patterns.
