#1 Post by chopper6358 » Sun Jun 22, 2014 8:15 pm

I have a 1993 sun tracker party barge 24 with 2 Bimini tops. The boat is stored out side and has a custom cover that leaks like crazy. I want to buy a new one but not sure which one is best for my needs....I have found lots of them on the internet but don't want to make a costly mistake.. main concern is water protection.... and i would like to leave fwd bimini on under the cover.i have to remove it to put present cover on.thanks for help in advance

Chooper, check out pontoonstuff.com They have just about everything you could want for your boat, plus you get a discount for being a member of this forum. Not sure what the code is but I'm sure someone on here can tell you.. Good luck with your search.

Chopper,

I have this one on mine.

http://www.pontoonstuff.com/collections ... oon-covers

It works great! It is fairly easy to put on as long as your toon is on the trailer. It keeps all the water out! With our pointed bows though it pools in the front corners. If your front bimini lays forward that my help solve that issue. Check out page 15 of my rebuild thread, that has some really good pictures of it on THE FLOATER.

I made mine myself with Sunbrella and I have it so that you leave the bimini up if you want it. You can see the cutouts for the front bimini. they are flaps that close and held in place with velcro. My cover does NOT leak.
