Bimini
by John from Ludlow, Vermont on July 28, 2018
This does not fit sales person said it was the right one for my 2009 whaler WRONG does not fit sags and bags no matter how you try to adjust Also was told 20% handling fee if I wanted to send back All in all terrible experience. I buy a lot of items for my boat but this is my last and finial sale from IBOAT

Great
by Jeffrey from Rochester, New Hampshire on August 08, 2016
Fit great, easy to assemble, looks great, the main pole on my boat mount on the window frame so I had to order those fittings separately.

I was very careful with giving Alex my ski tower dimensions. I went over the fact that I only have 6
by Raymond from northport, New York on July 26, 2016
I was very careful with giving Alex my ski tower dimensions. I went over the fact that I only have 60 inches between the uprights of the tower. I asked her several times are you sure the bimni top will fit the tower. She put me on hold and then came back and said yes it will fit. It did NOT fit and you charge 25% for returns.

Good
by Leo from Hudson, Iowa on August 17, 2015
Pleased with product however I wish it was adjustable instead of needing to be cut down. I had to cut it twice to get the right height.

48 " brace Kit
by Linda from Canton, Ohio on May 04, 2015
excellent This is a requirement if you do not want the bimini to lay on the boat when you close it up. The only challenge is if you cut the poles you should have directions how to remove the ends

Just right!
by Alex from Enterprise, Alabama on June 18, 2014
Bought these knowing that they would be too long for my purpose. They where very easy to cut, re drill, and rivet to the size I needed. Made by Carver industries. Same manufacturer as my bimini top.

a great addition...
by Tyler from Rockford, Illinois on July 09, 2013
I'm glad I purchased this brace kit along with the bimini top. It was very easy to cut to the length I needed and gives great support to the bimini frame. If you're buying a Carver bimini, spring for the brace kit too. You won't be sorry.

American Made
by Kevin from Owatonna, Minnesota on August 12, 2012
Very happy with this bimini top. It was easy to install. American made products will help bring this country back. I could have purchased a cheaper one but not made in America. I had to cut the brace poles to shorten them for our boat and re-rivet the bracket. Easy to do when you have a rivet gun. Put the main brackets on the top side of the window frame. I can stand up in this and keep cool and dry. Extends just 4 inches past the windshield so the rain will drip onto the windshield. Installed on a 1995 Bayliner 1704 Carpri SF with a 120 hp Merc outboard. Kevin Candi Owatonna, Minnesota. USA

Good Product
by Kristan from Southlake, Texas on June 19, 2012
Good product, connects as advertised. Ordered the stainless fitting upgrade with the bimini and the brace kit at the same time. The brace kit didn't come with the stainless fittings (thought it would have, otherwise an option would have been presented), and had to be purchased separately so that the appearance was consistent.

Q:
Where can you get spare plastic clips that hold the tubes together while stowing the braces?
A:
Just give us a call and we can arrange with Carver to send you out one.


Q:
I have misplaced the mounting hardware and instructions. How much would the hardware kit (stainless) cost?
A:
Part number 62012 is the brace kit with the stainless steel hardware: http://www.iboats.com/48-Aluminum-Brace-Kit-with-Stainless-Steel-Fittings-ENDURATop/dm/view_id.704580


Q:
I CANNOT TELL IF THIS INCLUDES THE CURVED SECTION AT THE TOP OR NOT?
A:
Not exactly sure what you're looking to find. This kit is only the poles on the back. They mount to your gunwale and attach around bimini poles to keep stored up.


Q:
Will it fit other brand bimini tops and does it hold the rigid?
A:
It should be able to work as long as your tubing is 7/8". All the hardware to mount it properly comes with it.
