Pontoon Boats

Bimini Top Extension

by

A Bimini top is a fabric used to shelter boat owners from the heat of the sun during their water activities. Bimini tops are mounted around the deck of a pontoon boat. Normal packaged Bimini tops have one fabric (depending on the purchased size and length). The Bimini top extension business came to a boost when a demand for extra fabric was needed to cover different sides or all sides that would avoid the heat from penetrating people’s skins that can cause skin cancer. The Bimini top extensions have other extra parts like poles

Pontoon boat bimini top extensions come in 3 different fabrics, those are Acrylic, polyester and cotton (poly-cotton, if applicable) which have  Anodized Aluminium properties. Acrylic is the most recommended but most  pricey when compared to the other two, it beats other fabrics in breath ability, durability, water repellency, mild dew resistance, UV/Fade resistance and stain resistance. Despite acquiring those great qualities, Acrylic is more costly than the other two (polyester and cotton). Poly-cotton fabrics  come second in strong fabric order, they’re more affordable and popular on the Bimini top extension business. The extra fabrics come 2 to 5 fabrics which can be used for not only walls but the following as well

Pontoon boat Bimini top extension kit has extra parts or accessories that help secure the extra fabrics to the main bimini top. Those are anodized Aluminium frames to avoid quick decaying caused by the saltwater, fabric tops that have different small sun top openings for stern light. Pontoon boat bimin top extensions also come with a height extender which favour many tall clients and helps pontoon boat owners to pitch the rooftops at a perfect angle from sunlight.

Pontoon boat Bimini top extension parts should be hand cleaned with freshwater and mild soap to wash away the saltwater splashed on it, that way it’ll add extra years to the part’s lifespan.

Pontoon Boat Double Bimini Tops – A Perfect Shade on the Water

by

Pontoon boats are all about family, friends and relaxation on the water. Do you imagine a perfect day like that? Probably, yes. Still, such a day would mean a perfect weather, isn’t it? And that includes a lot of sun! A bimini top is a beautiful way to make sure all remains just perfect out there by providing shade and protection from the sun and/or sudden rain. Furthermore, pontoon boat double bimini tops bring twice more of it!

There are many top benefits of pontoon boat bimini tops. They provide an instant shade to protect you and your dear people enjoying your day away and no need to worry about being in direct sunlight, sunstroke and unexpected rainfall. Rear support poles keep the frame strong against wind. A very good reason to be preferred over full enclosures is because they provide protection without enclosing whole pontoon and intruding the passenger’s view. On the other side, in case you would like a full sun exposure, they are folded back easily. Moreover, pontoon boat double bimini tops double the shade and double your pleasure. They provide full coverage and protection from sun and rain to increase the lifetime of your boat. While rear support poles stabilize the frame against the wind, you should be sure to keep the top folded back when picking  up speed to avoid its damaging. When this kind of the top is purchased, your investment for the future is protected. This is partially because the type of the cloth used for it is of good quality. Speaking about that, you should know that solution dyed polyester fabric is the best type of material for marine application. The yarn is dyed before it is made into solution dyed fabric, which means the color is more vibrant and resists fading much better than fabric dyed after being woven. Sometimes companies use cotton for their tops or even standard sewing thread and this should be avoided if you are interested in buying a top that will last longer than six months. Sunbrella marine fabric is the most recognized fabric brand of this kind available for both pontoons and boat biminis.
