Bimini for Sib?

Hi good folks..anyone on here bought or made a Bimini cover for their Sib? I have a quicksilver 365 HB sport and if the sun ever shines again I’m kinda looking at a Bimini. I think I’ve seen home made ones online but just wondered if anyone has done it? Thanks, Bill.

I fitted an eBay one ont my sports boat and although priced quite it was very robust even at speed. For a sib you would most likely have to glue supports to the tubes

Thanks very much…I’ve seen folk glueing things onto the tubes (The Gurnard) so that would be the way. Might have a look around on eBay..

Came across this when I was looking for something else. Looks as though everything is included. I have ordered from Amazon International Store before and didn't have to pay any VAT/duty although the total value was only £14.99.

Perhaps the best ones in the whitewater community are from Coyote River Gear in Durango, Colorado.

Steady........lol. Yea bit to pricey for me, back to the fishing brolly. ....seen em at about £80, alloy frame though, maybe a bit weak.

Thinking about taking the sib to France, need some cover if it goes to plan....
