Here's my 47 w/Bimini. Only use it on long trips when it rains. Sometimes have just the top on if it's hot and sunny on long trips. Otherwise it stays put away! Nice thing about the 47...it all fits in the engine compartment so I have it when I need it. P.S. Boat is FOR SALE.

Not a fountain, but here's a pic of mine. Mine came factory, and is probably not original. However, I don't think you can buy a camper top at the store. I think your only option is to buy a bimini at BoatersWorld or BoatUS Store. then take the boat to a canvas shop and have the remaining curtains made up.

Funny Stuff! The ones on the Fountain site don't look that bad actually. Probably cost a mint though. I'll have to check into it. Thanks for all the input guys!

FYI, I priced a bimini with front and side curtains (clear plastic) that was an exact copy of the factory unit with heavy duty stainless hardware and sunbrella and it came to $1800.00. I think the factory wanted 5K+ and the boat had to be there. The only reason I didn't go for it was there was no place to store it in the engine compartment on the 29. The 35 and up is no problem but not the smaller Fevers. The only other option was to store it on the frame and that looks like ****e!

If you are only going to use it when parked, an Anchor Shade works well. We have one and use it all the time to keep our twin 3yr olds out of the sun. My friend bought one of the knock-off anchor shades and it has a bad case of the "droops" between the supports and doesn't look "good". He now wishes he would have just bought the Anchor Shade and been done with it, now he will have bought it twice!
