[QUOTE="Jonboat Jerry, post: 266421, member: 6334"] Update on AlumaZilla. Summer is already in Florida so I had to get busy on the Bimini Top project. The only 75" wide bimini I could find was only 59" tall and I'm 6'3". It would take some serious stretching. I built a frame on the floor of the garage and mounted the top to it. Next I raised the frame on some 5gal buckets and boxes until I could walk under it and it was the right height for the boat. A local aluminum supplier had the tubing just larger than the original so it would slip right over. Wish I had taken a few pics to help with this discription. Anyway, it's on the boat and here is what it looks like.
