You can have a Bimini top that stores under hatch but requires install once you land. (the assembly stays strapped under the hatch while stowed.

Since the fountain has I believe a flat hatch with no back seat back in it you can also install a hideaway bimini that is mounted but drops in notch in the rear seat and stays in the engine compartment .

Search hideaway and hidden bimini and you will get the ideas for your local marine upholstery guy. DCB does alot of them that ive see out west.

We had an anchor shade. Worked pretty good when there was no wind. We got a Bimini for our 33 Outlaw to put up when we get where we are going on those really hot days!!

Here are a couple of pics.. I have run with it up doing 45-50, but don't normally run with it up. Has accon fittings to put it up in less than a minute.

The accon fittings are nice and quick!

They are around $100 and will last several weekends or a summer as long as you don't try to go above idle speed with one up.

I like my anchor shade, I too have had them break. Called tylormade for replacement parts told me they were waiting for the parts to come in on a shipment. Took my address, 3 weeks later the parts showed up no charge. I was pretty impressed, it wasn't their fault I had it up when it was really too windy out.
