Any suggestions on a quick, easy to store way to put some shade over the cockpit? Not so much underway as when anchored

I did a Goggle search as Sydways suggested and came up with another OSO post http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...t=27098&page=3 for this shade http://lostbwana.com/bimini2.htm half the price and everyone seemed to think the quality was there. A friend of mine has an Anchor shade on his 25' Grady White. Provides shade for his cockpit which is not that big. My boat is a 382 Formula, I am thinking it would be great to shade the cockpit and the Sunpad, but that has to be about 8 X 16.
