Some nice RIBs while we were on holiday!

Interesting Bimini and enclosure setups

Speaking of which, has anyone on here fitted a professionally made canopy like the examples in the photos or is this a better climates addition?

Is a bit odd that in a warm and sunny climate they have these when here in Scotland we power through 20mph winds at 30kts with rain and hail stinging our faces with no protection to speak of.

Quite like the extended console screen in the second pic. Would've been handy on Saturday

I think it’s more to do with the big yellow hot thing up in the sky, not much of an issue in Scotland [emoji6]

We use one occasionally, last summer quite a few times due to the cracking weather, nice to have the option of shade

Looking a little better weather on the south coast this weekend than the last few - so hopefully less 'brollies' and more sun cream
