Sorry, I don't have a picture to load, but, I love mine. Hair's getting thin and I need the shade.

This is/was a member's boat... Diego maybe? The pic is featured on the slide show on the front page of CSC. I have a 23' Sceptre, and enjoy running with the bimini dropped early in the morning and at night. If you're a hard core fisherman a t-top is probably the better choice, but a bimini will provide more shade when it's up than a t-top. I had a bimini on my 18' SF and was happy with that too.

My top is centered over the console. Have a plan to run a strap from the center of the trailing edge down to the back of the leaning post so the straps will be out of the way of the rear rod holders. It’s all about thinning hair.😂

I have a 20SF with the large console. I picked up an older Birdsall t-top years ago. It fits perfectly on the larger console. I’m sort of thinking how nice and versatile a Bimini would be. If you trailer a lot, the Bimini might be the way to go - less windage. Where you located? I might be refurbing my 20 and going back to convertible.

I’ve had both on my 20 yrs ago . The Bimini top offers more shade But with the arms and straps des not allow the freedom of movement the CC is designed to offer fisherman ! The t top will never give you the shade but does allow the 360 degree movement to walk around chasing a fish . Very very handy if you happen to fish alone every now and then
