Looking good.

Question for you on the Bimini. I see you have a support holding up the top. I am assuming the top attaches with the bolts through the railing. How does the support work? Does it clamp to the rail or did you have to drill a hole in the railing?

Classic good looking boat!



What other boat of that time looks so relevant in their classic state?
What other boat can be tweaked to look like it just came off the production line yesterday?

thank You

The back brace clamps on. I need to locate one of those. I fold mine back so it rests on the rear railing. A pains since it fills with water when it rains. The rain runs in the sleeve. I would probably put it down in a bad blow, but normally being up like that when I am not there would be helpful.

Dockside Canvas? Looks like the frame they did for me on my 28. Very nice!
