    E tower circumference

    My bimini top on my 2008 22Ve E series tower has finally taking its last beating. It has held in there like a champ, but finally gave up the ghost. I am wanting to order another one ASAP, looking at the Big Air Super Shadow. It requires me to give them the circumference of the front vertical supports and the horizontal rear bar. My boat is about an hour away, does anyone know what the circumference around those would be.


    Thank you.

      Either or, they ask for circumference so they can supply the correct size clamps, however diameter x pi will get you circumference as well.

        Had the big Air Bimini on my last boat. Very nice Bimini and pretty sturdy, please show pictures after the install curious how it would look.
        My life's journey is not ending up looking pretty, its sliding in broadside, used up, worn out, screaming "What a Ride"

          Will do, i looked at the big air too, but I really liked how the factory was above the bars not below.

          Planning to order as soon as I can get the E tower tube size

            The only issue I might see, is the front bar on the tower is lower than the rear bar and the Bimini might be angled forward a bit. Those biminis are big and there is "some assembly required" i.e. Drilling and screwing make sure when you drill the holes that the screw heads are inside the frame otherwise after a few trips the screw heads could rip the sunbrella. Also the cut out for the tower pylon is a PITA to cut and the ring provided is kinda cheap, all the hardware is plastic I was sure overtime it would break but I put a hard year on it and there was no sign of wear so I was pleased how well it stood up to the heat and weather. Can't wait cause I really liked that Bimini, one thing from the old boat I didn't want to get rid off.
