Pics or recommendations for an aftermarket Bimini on a 2007 RZ2 W/ Z Series tower

[Halestorm]

Looking to get a new Bimini for my RZ2 and I can't find a decent picture of an aftermarket Bimini on one ... Were looking at Krypt, Reborn, Indy, and Monster... ANy other recommendations or pics would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry I am not able to help you with your bimini question,

but - do you happen to have a tower rack that actually holds surf boards?
the one we currently has does not have a large enough spacing to fit our board.

thanks and sorry for the thread jack

pretty sure this is what I currently have,

Dose Z5 make anything for your tower? Of corse they are a hard top.

I’m gonna throw it out there, in case someone who sees this knows, but I’m looking for an aftermarket Bimini for an Alpha Z tower. I hate the factory one..

Going to give this thread a bump...

I am going to reach out to sewlong, but in case there may be other leads...

we have an 08 RZ2 and I am looking for an extended coverage bimini to replace the rear section of the factory one.

took our 8 month old out the other weekend and found that we would really like to get more shade on the backseat, rear sundeck (engine cover) area.

thanks

Depends a lot on where you live I think. In Austin the guys at Bartlett can make custom Bimini all day long. I’d go look for a good sail and/or canvas shop and see what they can do. I’ve looked for pre-made extended biminis for my 2007 VE with the E tower and haven’t had much luck. I asked Bartlett when I added surf pockets and he told me he could totally make a new bigger one for me if I wanted. He wanted to see the boat and measure it to make the supports though so being local helped.

If you can wait until August, Great Lakes Boat Tops runs specials once a year. Here's a thread I started a couple of years ago; http://www.tigeowners.com/forum/show...highlight=sale
Ask for Ashley Denton.

SewLong was very nice, pleasant to talk to on the phone.
They think they have an extension that should work, called ShadeSail.
Going to send them some more detailed pics of the current rear section so they can verify it will work.
