where's the best place to go for a bimini top and storage cover? i called eliminator and they put me in contact with the company that does there's. i would prefer to go to a local company that can do custom installs properly. i also would like a custom storage cover. i'm VERY scared to have someone cutting holes in my new boat but i have to have a bimini top. any advice?

I know of a good one here in UT. Sugarhouse Canvas. Guaranteed my bimini to 85 mph. But that is a ways away for you. --------- T

Rude, I do not know what side of town you are on, but I have been happy with an upholstery shop on Valley View near the Rio, it is called Jeff's auto & boat upholstery. I do not think they do Bimini tops from scratch though.
Good luck!

The only place i've ever heard anything about is BC canvas(i think that's the name) it is on the left right when you enter Boulder city. He always has boats there he is doing covers and biminis for so you can check out his work.

Try CUSTOM canvas & awnings. They have always been good for me and my special projects. There at 719 E. Lake Mead Dr. just past West Marine on the other side of the street. Phone # 564-1098.

Rude,
As you are just entering Boulder City, there is a small row of shops on the left hand side across from the gas station on your right. They do a good job from what I hear, and he really likes boaters, especially in the slow winter months.

i still haven't had one made and if you are talking about the place on the north side of the street in the area of one of the school zones, you are the second person that recommended the place. once i finally get around to getting one made i'll definitely be checking with them. i think they are called custom bimini tops (or something like that).
