Any Pulsare Bimini Top Pictures

I wasn't going to do it, But my wife doesn't do good in long periods of sun and if I want to get the most enjoyment out of my 2001 2100BR, than a Bimini top may be in the near future, especially on those slow days pulling the kids on a tube.

Does anyone have any pictures of a Bimini on thier Pulsare?

Mounting location Options, Brands to consider etc... would all be very helpful!

I feel your pain and had to get a bimini for the same reasons. I had mine custom made and found that it was worth the few extra bucks over the pre-made ones, which always end up being a compromise on where they mount, how high they sit, and how they fold up when not in use. A decent boat top shop should have no problem making a custom one and figuring all that stuff out. Mine cost $765 CDN installed with Sunbrella material. That's the equivalent to around $550 USD which is about $200 more than the ones you can order online, but the price I paid included installation which is worth something too.

As you can see, mine attaches to the windshield frame and folds back to sit along the top of the back seat when I don't want it up or have the boat covered. It also has the quick release pins so it comes off in less than a minute. I've had it over 60 MPH and it's been fine. Obviously my Pulsare is a BRX so you'd probably need it mounted a little differently on a BR.

My struts come out from a place right near the seats on the top of the cap of the boat, inside the glass. The stabilization comes from attachment to the front and rear cleats.
