Use cases
Rear shade for T-Top boats
T-Tops protect the helm but leave the aft cockpit exposed. This bimini drops into the rear rod holders and extends shade aft — adds 3–8 m² of shade depending on size. Crew/anglers stay cool while fishing or relaxing at anchor.
Anchor / lunch hook shade
Drop hook in a bay for lunch — open the bimini, instant shade for 4–6 people. Fold away when running. Perfect for day-trip boats that don't want a permanent canvas full enclosure.
Easy retrofit, no drilling
Uses existing fishing rod holders — no holes in the T-Top, no permanent hardware. Off-season just pulls out of the rod holders, folds into the storage bag, lives on a shelf until next spring.

Installation guide
1
Pick the size by measuring the gap
Measure the open space behind your T-Top: how far back you want shade (length, L) and the gap between the rod holders on each side of the T-Top (width, W). Pick the bimini that fills the gap — don't try to make a too-big bimini fit a small T-Top, the fabric will sag.
2
Pick the colour
Navy = classic look, all 6 sizes. Black = modern, hides UV fade and bird droppings best, 4 sizes. White = coolest in direct sun (saves up to 5°C under the bimini vs darker fabrics), 4 sizes.
3
Drop the telescopic arms into rod holders
The arms come closed (1.3 m). Slide each one into a fishing rod holder on either side of the T-Top — standard rod holders are Ø 22 mm. The bimini fabric is attached between the arm tops by stainless turnbuckles.
4
Extend and tension
Telescope each arm out to the height you want (1.3 to 2.0 m). The fabric tensions automatically as the arms extend — don't over-extend, it stresses the seams. The bimini should be drum-tight, not banjo-tight.
5
Fold away above 20 knots
When you're underway above 20 knots, fold the bimini: release the turnbuckles, collapse the arms back to 1.3 m, fold the fabric. Stow in the included bag. Don't run with the bimini open at higher speeds — the arms aren't structural and will flex/snap.
