Are you sure you are not looking for a "convertible top"? The
difference
between a convertible and bimini is that you cannot stand under a
convertible.

What year and size is your boat?


'83 169 Scorpion.(listed as 18 ft. on the title..go figure)

Yes, a "convertable" would probably be more descriptive. This top isn't
a straight back design though. nIt would have a raised curve in the
front, and about mid way back would have a "swallow tail" attaching to
the sides.

Kind of hard to describe. but looks pretty good.


If you cannot stand underneath it at the helm or in the cockpit and if it
attaches to the windshield frame you will be uncomfortable under it in
anything but cool rainy conditions.

JMO. Don't say I didn't want you. ;-)
