Z, I can run up to 45mph with the top up. I wouldn't go any faster than that. All my hardware is still intact. I also added a channel to slide the bimni forward when I attach the ski plyon on the bulk head. I'll take a picture of that install soon.
 
Bimini is GREAT so far! I can store mine towards the rear and the factory cover still closes over it, so I dont have to remove the unit to cover the boat :thumb:

Nothing broken so far.
 
CMPULSE The top looks great. I just got back from Biloxi Ms. I got in touch with the guy that bought the boat I have new to try to get paper work for this boat. he said I have a lot of parts for that boat in my garage that you can have if you want to ride over and get them! Two hours later I was there. A factory cover that has never been opened and a top and all hardware still in a bag and the ski pole the hard ware for it was already on the boat but the pole and braces were missing and he still had it all together he sold the boat 5 years ago to the guy I got it from. Till then it was always inside so the guy that I got it from must have parked it in the yard and just left it there. The A$$ that I got it from never went back to get the paper work are any of the parts I guess that worked out best for me. THe boat is coming along real well if it clears up today I will take some pics and post.
