Bimini for 630

I intend to transfer my 630 to the Med soon, and thus will need to install a bimini. Can anybody give me advice on this? Particularly I am interested in a construction that is only little visible when not in use...

Sorry didn’t remember/know the boom sheeting at this place, so need some structure good look

Hi,

I saw what they are producing while living there for 20 days waiting for my 630 to be finished by W&R. They also fitted a stereo system and did a lot of changes for me. They are very careful and know their job - but they are veeeery expensive.

What W&R produces is not fit for the Med since it is fully enclosed. For one third of the price you can have one build in Greece to protect you from sun and the occasional summer rain.

It will not loock slick and racing and the boat will look like a charter boat, but for sure it will loock better than the north pole version by Wendel und Rados.

Once you decide on the design everything is easier.

Yes have installed two biminis by W&R , one aft over the helm. That one folds back against the backstay. Then the forward one that sits on slides on the side of the spray hood. That one we slide forward and fold in front of the spray hood , when not in use. Works pretty good, not totally estetic when folded, since the frame is quite visible on the sides. But still thinks it is the best option there is.
