Default Folding T-Top - Pretty neat

Some of the guys on the CS forum have these.
Let's them put their boat in the garage or under the carport.

I gotta wonder how stable that this - there is virtually no cross
bracing for side-to-side stability.

Haven't seen any complaints. They sell an additional stand-off kit
for stiffening but those without say it's not needed.

I was gonna say tht 12 hundered bucks looks pretty steep for something
that at least "looks" so flimsy.
But what do I know?

Speaking of side-to-side stability, did I ever mention the swaying
action I get with my bimini? Oh, I did? Well...never mind.

It was determined that you should have purchased a surry top like
Harry's. His was the finest kind available and didn't sway like yours.
Yup. We remember.

Was that the bimini that was hand built by the finest Union craftsmen
using only expensive German hand tools and the highest grade materials
known to man including the top material that was certified by NASA and
was used to craft space suits installed by a crew of highly trained
engineers using only high strength through fittings so that on the
next fire boat welcome after some amazing adventure on Chesapeake Bay
so that nobody would get wet while standing under it?

No, Mr. Multiple Personality Disorder, it's built by a vendor in the
Carolinas and of heavier tubing and with more and better supports than
the piece of **** bimini on Herring's price-built boat. You know, the
boat Herring is selling so he can be among the boatless here.
