http://tulasendlesssummer.com/shop-tula/ This took a few weeks and I was trying to find affordable options other than building it ourselves. Most were too heavy or too expensive. We were all in for about $1500 for this hard Bimini. Check out https://youtu.be/iEo7Y-fCG0I and http://svreach.com/boat-blog/hard-top.html where we got ideas and inspiration for this project.

I know I know the world is great nothing bad ever happens and everyone is lovely. But your two channels are so refreshing good bad and ugly. I guess realistic un like a few channels now youtube is being crushed by sailing channels.
Wishing you all the best and if you every get to the South Pacific give me a shout out you have free labour and home cooked meals. Thats if we are not off on our own adventures!
Great job though. You're giving me ideas on how to construct my own hard Dodger, Bimini and davit cover.

I was born in the wrong country !!!!
Nice jobs guys,,,,
All the best to you,,,
You might also want to check whether the foam that you use, releases gas under the heat of epoxy curing. That might also cause bubbles in your laminate.

I'm gonna run out now and grab a pack.
that top matches the boat's lines very well!
Jetty needs a mask, so she can have a turn with the orbital sander.....
