bimini

Hey guys! I am looking for a Bimini/dodger and some cushions for my cockpit. If it can fit a 1978 E27 that would be great. I am located near Marina Del Rey, LA, CA Im tired of sitting in the sun all day. Thanks!

I would like to have dimensional information so I can get a dodger for my E25. The stick is down and I would like to know the boom height off the cockpit floor (and above the hatch). Does anyone have a dodger they could send pictures of and the dimensions?

I've recently began developing a new skill. I have bought a walking foot sewing machine and built a Bimini top with help from Sailrite's excellent building a Bimini DVD and it was so much fun I don't want to stop there. I would like to go all the way with a full enclosure and am wondering if...

Anyone interested? Updated with Blue Sea electronics and have a different bimini. The dodger needs some work, glass is in o-k condition, small triangular piece missing. Bimini in equal shape, needs minimal stitching if any. If you want more pictures, send me a PM. Best offer by Thursday gets...

Hi, new to the list. I have a 28 Ericson in Sandusky Ohio and am in the need of a Bimini. Ithought I would check to see if anyone else has purchased a Bimini here or has suggestions for one for this boat. I've looked at the big box sporting goods stores and the price is tempting compared to the...

Has anyone put a bimini on there e-25? If so how did you do it and do you have any pictures?

I'm thinking about installing a bimini top on my 27. Any suggestions on brand and dimensions?

Anyone selling a Bimini for a E35-2? Anyone know of some who is or manufactures them?

Aloha all, just thought I'd post some pics of my re-make of my 1973 E35-II. I bought the boat for $9000 in March 2009 and worked on her for an average of 4 hours/day for almost a year to get her into her present condition. One of the main things I did to make her user-friendly in Hawaii is to...

Anybody got any pictures of an E-29 with a good bimini setup? I got terrible sunburn last weekend! Thanks!

Anyone have any suggestions for adding a bimini to a 23? We would really like some relief from the Florida sun. Run the backstay through a hole in the canvas? We're in the thinking stage. Fred Nelson Ericson 23-II #344 :egrin: Ad Astra

Aloha, I have a '79 E-35 that I want to move the traveler to over the cabin (for several reasons, the main one is to allow a full bimini for the cockpit). If you have done this or know anyone who has done it I would like to know how successful it has been (i.e. is hauling the main to...

I have a 4-bow bimini frame looking to go on an E39. Problem is the huge cockpit. Canvas guy says to cover the cockpit would make the boat look like a covered wagon, and would require a 5th bow. To all the E39 owners (or previous owners): Can you share any photos of your boat with your...

I'm thinking of adding a bimini this season - to shade our noggins from all that intense Pacific Northwest Sunshine:rolleyes: Have any E35-2 owners with stock mainsheet/traveler/boom arrangement successfully installed a bimini? If so, how large a bimini did you manage? Any installation...

I am looking for a bimini frame for our Ericson 35-2. I don't care if it has the canvas or not, or color of canvas if it has one. I can have a canvas made once I get the frame installed. Thanks, any lead would be helpful! cduer on WindShadow in cold Ohio:egrin:

Has anyone built or had made a helmsman bimini for an ER 35-2. We sail on Lake Erie and believe it or not, there are many hot,sunny days when a little shade would come in handy. I'm fairly handy with buiding projects and know a good seamstress if there are plans out there somewhere. Or if...

I expect to complete the purchase of Windfall, a 1990 38-200 over the next week or so and bring it home from Rhode Island to St. Croix. The boat is wonderfully equipped but needs modifications in several areas to accommodate its new Caribbean home and some owner needs. I hope some of you can...

Looking for a bimini for my E35. I am located in So. Cal. Bomr

I am interested in adding some canvas to my newly acquired 1973 E35-2. The boat has a dodger that needs to be redone, but I need something to provide a little shade while I am at the helm. I am having trouble figuring out a good bimini setup with the position of the traveler at the rear of the...

If anyone here doesn't use there Bimini much, and would rather have cash in hand, let me know! My poor wife has had localized skin cancer, so I've got to keep her out of the sun (but in the fun;-) -Marcus

Bimini Frame for Ericson 34. Now sold. The frame is 7/8inch diameter Stainless. Width is 84in and the "height" when folded up is 48in. The strut that opens out is 28in and its pivot point is 19in up from the base. The bimini was rarely used and the fabric on it is virtually new. Reason for...

Hi Vikings, does anyone have any experience with a hard-top bimini? In our area winds in the summer are typically high and a regular framed bimini with a canvas top gets a serious beating if opened during the sail... So I thought a hard-top may be an option. So, again - any...

Hi there, Im looking at getting a dodger and possibly a bimini for my E29 and was wondering if anyone has any standard designs or places to contact to have one made. My boat is in the lake erie, sandusky area and the companies are not plentiful that do this work. So my thinking is that'll I...

Hi, <O:p My current bimini is attached to the dodger on one end and to a short horizontal pole on the other end. The pole is attached to the back stay. <O:p I'm thinking of having a new bimini with a more common stainless frame made. <O:p <O:p I have seen many bimini frames mounted on the deck...

I need some opinions and expert advice. I have never commissioned a bimini for a boat before. I have a spray dodger on my E25 and am having a new custom bimini made this week for additional shade next summer and I want to do it right by avoiding pitfalls. My question is this: Should I have...

I am scheduled to meet with a canvas man next week to design a new dodger and bimini for my E27. She has Wheel steering with the traveler in front of the helm . So ,for this reason the helm will be left uncovered and that is OK with me . My thoughts(at the present) are to make the dodger and...

Hi Jeff: Sorry it took so long to get bimini pictures to you. Hope this helps in your decision to add one.

See the photo. This is a full cockpit bimini in Sunbrella Green Hemlock Tweed. Folds with cover when not in use. Excellent condition with the full SS frame. There are obviously transportation issues, but you can pick it up in Kingston, ON for $300. Shipping is a possibility but might be...

The 35-3 that is one of the pics when we open this web site has a real nifty looking bimini. Is this one of our members boats? We need to get one (miss the B we had on our previous boat). This one looks like it is just suspended over the cockpit without a bunch of supports to get in the way...

I posted this in the for sale and wanted section under an older thread "Bimini wanted" Anyway I have a frame, no canvas, from an E 38-200. Should fit other boats. Pics on other thread. I can take measurements if needed. Too big to ship. Pick up in Annapolis. $100. Thanks,

I am currently in the process of getting a bimini for the E-38-200. I got a frame from another e 38 owner that will fit fiine. It has 4 bows. Two large ones each with a small one angled towards the center. My bimini guy suggested I may want to consider doing a bimini that runs just forward to...

I have a frame for a bimini that I picked up ffom a fellow 38 owner and I have some questions about its intallation as I am having a canvas guy come to measure. The bimini frame consists of 4 bows, 2 short ones and 2 tall ones, one of the tall ones is a little taller than the other. It appears...

hi all- looking for a table extension leaf for my e-28 -any condition. also need bimini, dodger, spinnker and main. let me know what you have and what you are asking.wiland@hotmail.com

What is the best way to install dodgers and biminis given the fact that the main sheet traveler & track on my E-28 is in front of the companion way entrance? It would appear that the rigging would have to be moved to accomodate these accessories. What is the best approach to this?

Have any E26 owners (late 80's vintage) fitted a Bimini cover? If so was it custom made or is there an off the shelf solution? Thanks for the help.
