I have a little over two grand in to this. All stainless bows and fittings, sunbrella brand canvas. Easily converts to a bimini in just a few minutes. Also has curtains that drop midway back so I can take off the rear side curtains for fishing and still have the forward section to stay out of the rain and wind. Best money I have spent so far on my money pit.

I make custom covers here in Michigan and I suggest only using sunbrella. Since top gun doesn't breathe,tends to fade, and has a little shrinkage. Sunbrella is fully breathable, fade resistant and won't shrink. It has a 5 year warranty. The cost for a bimini top is around 600 to 700 out of stainless steel and then the curtains will run you roughly 400.00 each. hope this helps.

Has anyone ever tried to make a bimini and full enclosure using these collapsible tent poles? I have always wanted a full enclosure, but want to store it completely out of sight. Not much room in my engine compartment to store it.

Mine has a cover that is used to wrap the bimini once its folded back. It is suported up, and resembles a radar arch. Looks fine and is in no ones way.
