Bimini Attachments

[jerryd5515]

My bimini top has several zippers along each side. Where can I find the curtains that attach to the bimini top for a 2009 SR210 Sundeck?

I'll throw in a quick amateur answer...the professionals will follow and I suggest listening to them.

I was told that for the first year or two of a model, the only place to get canvas was the dealer (and I can tell you from personal experience, be prepared to be stunned at the costs). After that, there are several sources, including what I understand is the supplier for Sea Ray...Great Lakes, maybe? Apparently there is also a complete industry that hand makes canvas and there are "mom and pop's" around every lake that could do the trick. Finally, there are sponsors of this site...I think one is Giada Canvas...that specialize in canvas that can probably custom make you something too.

I am in the process of looking for curtains for my 2001 230BR. With the help of the folks on this site, I learned I needed to look for local custom marine canvas fabricators. I now have two quotes for forward visors, side curtains, and an aft curtain and both are right around $1000 if I use the existing bimini (there has been a suggestion that due to age, I should consider repalcing the bimini at the same time).

Do do an extended bimini with the camper enclosure it is pushing $2000.

Thanks for all the replies. Good info from everyone. Now the search begins...

Should you try to contact Giada be sure to do it via email. I sent them a PM here on the forum over a month ago & never got a reply.
