Someone grabbed my bimini top this weekend trying to walk around onto the bow. The swivel where the bimini attaches to the hull snapped. Looks to be a simple part held in by two screws but I do not know if they are sold separate from the top. My son has a lathe and has offered to machine one but I don't want him to tie up that time for a $5 part. Thanks for any suggestions. Mark Edit: I found them available at Overton's and other sources both in Plastic, Black or White and Stainless for standard 7/8" tube. Hope it helps someone else.  |

Thanks JQ, I found Amazon has it for $12 delivered so please don't waste your time looking. My wife informed me that we should stay with the black plastic version so it matches the rest of mine. And you know what that means. BTW, the boat ran smooth after the log hit at idle. So maybe I don't have to change that prop out. You are correct on fixing the CNC props, I am 50/50 on this boat, one repair worked 100% and the other was smooth but cost me 3 MPH top end so I bought the new 422. ------------- |
