    I can find plenty of available bimini tops on line. Problem I have is getting answers to a couple of questions.
    1> I have the canvas cover, guess you would call it a dock or trailer cover that goes from and covers Minn Kota at bow and runs back to transom with straps on transom. Strap ratchets on either side of stern. will the bimini have to be removed entirely when I dock the boat to get cover on (with bimini up or is there an easy way to modify the canvas to work with bimini poles.
    2> If I don’t want the bimini up (fishing or sunning) will the standard bimini fold down and be out of the way

    Any canvas shop will be able to modify a cover to go around Bimini poles. They mayday some velcro or more snaps to the boat but its a simple operation.

    your second issue all depends on how the Bimini is made to attach. The mounts can be put on a sliders it can be slid all the way back to the transom when you want it out of the way tipped down but still on the boat.

    I highly advise getting in touch with a boat top maker and tell him what you want it to do. I would stay away from ordering one online that “fits” your boat. You will be much happier getting exactly what you want and if the first guy can’t do it, then find another because I guarantee you it can be done to fit your needs.
