"Bimini on a Blackjack is like a basket on a Harley"

That is exactly what I said when I saw the start of the thread. I would never "disrespect" my Blackjack with a Bimini ; however, I should have a black Power Pole on it by next weekend. Can't wait.

Damn you guys are hard on an old married fart like myself. She has been getting her way for 31 yrs and it ain't stoppiong now. However to put it in perspective, when I was wrestling with whether to pull the trigger on a BlackJack due to the cost, my wife's comment was as follows, "You work for your money and you love to fish, ordere the damn boat that you want". So if she wants a Bimini she gets a Bimini. Now it is only going to be on the boat when she is in it! I ordered a Carver Bimini. I had one of those on my Kenner 21V for 14 yrs and it held up great and it stayed on the boat so I know they last.

Lavocat,
I can relate. I got my BlackJack for 30th Anniversary last Augst. If my wife wanted a Bimini, there would be one on it. Enjoy it and let us know how it looks...Cheers

The Bimini is a Carver. www.carvercovers.com You can't order from them though but they will give you a list of online vendors if you call them. It is a 6 ft cover and the width is whatever my wisth on the boat was, I don't remember off hand. It is a 3 bow model.

That's a fine boat. I'm also interested in your numbers with the SHO.
