Kanookstr has these latches on his boat and top and they look great and will not snag you whenyou go by. They are available from Eddie Marine and also at Cabella's with a round adapter to attach to tubes if the cotter pin system does not work.

I ordered a Bimini over the weekend. Similar to Nort's, all 1" stainless custom made to fit the boat. I was told it would be good to about 75 mph.

You might want to consider a homing beacon for it also it will be easier to find at the bottom of the lake with it.

He has built a few so hopefully he know what he is talking about. If not the other 1/2 will be jumping in the water trying to save it.
