Thread subject: Whaler Central - Boston Whaler Boat Information and Photos :: Would a Bimini for classic Montauk fit a modern Montauk?

I am doubtful that the frame would be wide enough. Your boat has 8" more beam than the classic.

Even if you could find a way to make it work, you would end up with a bimini that was narrower than optimal for your boat. When it comes to sun protection, you want to max out the dimensions in every direction.

Too bad, there was a guy down here who was recently selling a bimini for a Montauk 170 that was in beautiful condition, for $250. It was red, but it sold quickly.
