I had the factory bimini on a 382 and no way it would fit......the bimini would need to be nearly 1 ft narrower to fit inside the compartment, reducing the amount of shade it provides. Leaving it on top of the sunpad, or propped up on the rear poles always seemed best for me.

These are from my 303, but I have the exact same setup on the 382...

Have not figured out how to fit mine in yet on my 336, but there are brochures showing it stowed I know it has to be possible. Need to be a contortionist to get it in

I have had a bimini stowed in the engine compartment. The problem with that is most bimini's are sewn and glued. The heat from the engine dries and releases the glue. I took the bimini out to preserve it and went to a sunshade. The sunshade is light and works for nearly every boat. The downside is you can't use it while running...but who wants a bimini up at 90mph? Also, the sunshade stores easily and looks pretty cool.
