Anyone know where I can get the very short Bimini poles that hold the top of the engine cover? Also either in Vegas or have a shoe shopping addiction set my top up perfectly. I’m having problems getting it in the right position and when I hit speeds it’s putting a lot of tension on the top.

I think you might need to post a pic of exactly what you are looking for?

Oh!

I get what you want now...

I have two sets of those. One set is about three inches long, and keeps the stored top, an inch or so above my upholstery, so the top doesn't leave a dent in the seats when it's stored.

The other set are about 36" inches long, and hold the top in it's normal position, or in the radar position when it's stored (rolled up).

You'll probably have to take your boat to any Bimini top shop, so the can make them fit Your application just right.

I don't know any shops in Vegas. I'm sure someone around here does though.

I used to make the short poles and still have a set somewhere, I think the ones I have are about 8". Let me know if that would work for you.

Anyone know where I can get the snap in bases for the hard pole one of mine broke this weekend?

I used some taco quick disconnects for the shorty tube supports when the Bimini is down. Longer tubes using the same disconnects for when the top is up...

Bought some scrap SS tube and cut to your desired length
