Default Need some help stabilizing a bimini top

Thank you, I will. Content and secure in the knowledge that the Lateral
Brace is the ONLY (read O-N-L-Y) thing stabilizing the frame laterally.
"It serves to prevent the Bimini Frame from occillating side to side,
and banging against the Arch."

here's hoping your boy is on top of everything.

The Arch does nothing to prevent sway, except get in the way. The
attachments of the frame to the Arch do not affect it's stability, pro or
con. Vic is right.

Your frame is inside the confines of your radar arch. It certainly does
add to the stability of the frame and prevents radical sway.

Enjoy the evening JR. I am waiting for a phone call from my son on Parris
Island.
