This has probably been discussed before. With the gigantic biminis on the new boats, is it possible to tow with them down? I trailer everywhere and the giant Bimini would be a problem for me. I currently have a 21 foot scarab and am considering a larger boat. I really like the smaller Bimini on the non e series boats, but must have the speed control for wakeboarding that is only available on the e series. Thanks
 
The Bimini Canvas can be removed fairly easily but the frame is not meant to removed. It can be removed but really not advisable.
