This sort of bimini doesn't wobble because it is properly supported.

For fishing a center console I still prefer a large T-top.

What's the point if you can't walk a fish around the boat?



Yes, indeed, that's something I've had to do twice in 50+ years of
sal****er fishing, and its at the top of the list of techniques on 54'
Bertrams, too.

I don't like tee-tops. Never have. First, they're always there, even
when you don't want them there, second, they're a constant windage
problem on the water, third, they act like drogues when you're
trailering, fourth, they're a pain in the ass when you're trying to put
on a full boat cover, fifth, they increase rocking motion on smaller
boats, and so forth and so on.

But I'm sure they have a lot of appeal to the floating Winnebago crowd.
