    53 MY Bimini Top

    Anyone need a Bimini top for a 53 Hatteras MY?

    Front and 2 ft back frame.

    Im putting on a hard top. Located in NJ. Frame and most hardware. Some new deck / attaching hardware may be needed. Also has a 1 season black canvas that needs a touch of Tornado repair.

    No real price in mind; just looking for a home.

    Who is doing the hard top? I am tired of getting my Bimini blown off...3 times since April!

    Frame is in NJ. Come and get it!
    Canvas may be repairable. It's 1 year and 1 storm old. A seam to fix.

    I got the top made by Atlantic Towers.
    Price was right, here is what to know. It a polished aluminum frame made to ok standards. They use a really thin fiberglass across the top only. It looks fine from below, but dimples from the top. I was really using the frame to support 8' x 12' of solar panels so it works perfectly for us. The front supports are hinged not welded. Allows for a DIY install.

    Took me 5 hours to prep and top for wires and solar panels. Mostly drilling and mounting the panels.

    2-3 hours of crane time.
    2 hr of staring at it and moving it an inch up or down.
    2 hrs of locking in the supports.

    We did it slow in a 8hr and 4 hr day.
    Crane should 800-1000.
    Welder/help 500.
    2 "free" hands.

    budget 2K for install and come in happy and under.
