So when I bought my pro sport a few years back it came with a Bimini top (Taylor made according to the tags). The owner did not have the side curtains, it either never had any or the state kept them when he bought it from them (was a dnr boat). So after looking around at pictures and other boat that had them I enlisted the help of my mom to make a set for it. The attached picture isn’t of the best quality, it makes the color look way different than the original also, but in reality it’s actually really a close match. Short of some velcro in the upper back to help hold that corner up this side is ready to go. The other side will have to wait till I can pull the boat out as there isn’t enough room to work as it sits in the garage now. I wish I’d have started this sooner so I could have had them up at Kab. this spring, would have come in handy on one afternoon in particular when mother nature was bent on getting me soaked.
In total I think I maybe spent 70 bucks on the materials (and I bought enough that we could screw up the first time and still have enough to make a new set with material to spare). I can’t take any credit on the sewing work though, my mom did it all on am old singer heavy duty sewing machine they have.
A professionally made one may have looked a little cleaner but I didn’t think we did too bad given it was our first attempt and made using a template I scribbled onto a piece of cardboard held in place.
