I'm looking to replace the small bimini top (original Mills) with a larger stainless top that folds forward infront of the bow rails. The currrent top is not only very small but seems a little flimsy with the aluminum structure and kick out rubber footed poles that move around alot in wind or waves.
Questions-
1) Best source and price for a stainless replacment?
2) Best size for good coverage, I like the size of this 6' or 8' on CapJ's personal page- http://www.whalercentral.com/infusions/personal_page/view_personal_page.php?user_id=4293
3) Possible to mount on rails on the 1979 model to move the top fwd or aft?
Anyone with experience undertaking this project? I see online that Taylor offers aluminum options, but stainless seems to be a better long term option, maybe I'm wrong on that?
