Can anyone post pictures of your Bimini on 32 fountains? I am trying to figure out what length to make it and how to get it to fit with the way the side glass leans in.

The other issue I am looking at is when it is folded down seems like it would hit The part where the non skid step is located. There doesn't seem to be anyway to store while under way.

For those that have them what have you done? I ask because down here when idling out the sun and heat is killer.

I went to a local boat shop and they just happen to have one that was a little bit too wide so I just had to install two brackets on the outside of the window in thats the only brackets I installed in the whole boat. When it folds down it folds down the back behind back seats and lies on the sundeck about a foot back so you can sit on the sun deck and drive at the same time. If you do get one done up, get one made out of the mesh is not cloth because of the mesh you can go like 90 with the cloth you can Only go like 30 itstarts waving like a flag

After the $1600 quote I got it may be worth a try, as long as it will stay while moving at slow speed and with the wind.
Think I may do that first.

And you don't have to make any more holes in your boat!

Considering the Anchor shade for ours as well. Only thing I am worried about is the pole being in the walkway between the bolsters which may be a hassle to get past.

We have had one for a few years now and love it. Once set up I just offset the pole in the walkway to one side and tie it off to the rear grab handles. Makes it super stable and keeps it out of the way. Can be set up and taken down in a few minutes.
