Bimini suggestions

I'm looking for bimini brand and mounting suggestions. Now that I've gotten the internal items on the list done, it's time to move to the outside - rub rail, cover and bimini. But the bimini will come first. Every boat I've owned came with a factory bimini so I've never had to buy an aftermarket brand. As such help along these lines would be greatly appreciated.
Not sure yet whether I'm going to use a stand alone or tower mounted and it will likely depend on quality and how well it covers but suggestions here would be welcome as well. While I'm not going to say money isn't an issue, I'm certainly not looking for a bargain ... I'd rather spend a few hundred extra and get a well built and strong bimini that will last.

Thanks!

I purchased mine from towerbimini.com too. It was not cheap, but it's really nice and fit perfectly as delivered.

+ 3 Tower Bimini Inc. in California. Danny is great to work with and they have a Stainless Steel option. I have the aluminum and it is holding up great.

Yes, that' s the one. My mistake.

I too have aluminum, and it has held up well. But they have stainless. Also, no hole are drilled on the standard tower bims.

I've been to their shop, though its been years. Probably headed down there soon for a custom boat cover.

I as well am a very satisfied Tower Bimini customer. Both service and quality of the product are top notch.

Joe,I have the same color boat. While my tops are different than what you are looking at I have both a red and a black one. I thought the black one looked good on it but everyone else likes the look of the red one. I do not have a tower though,don't know if or how that affects the color combo.

I think you will be happy. They made one for my brother's third party tower, and it fits great. BKH

I'm the wrong guy for color coordination but red main and white edges might be fine too. I had this black and white one first and now have a red and white

Does anyone happen to know if the red used on the 95' boats is more similar to the Sunbrella 'Logo Red' or the ' Jockey Red' ??   I'm thinking it's the Jockey, but as they say it really depends on your specific screen.   So real world experience would be preferred

I no longer have it, but I purchased a Sunbrella Folder that had small samples of all of the colors. I got it off e-bay for very little money. Jockey Red was the best match on my DARK RED 2002 Sport Nautique. The sample folder was helpful. It was something a Sunbrella Dealer would have on hand. Maybe you can find one too.
