I have a 2015 150 Super Sport. The Bimini canvas wraps/bunches up around the bimini poles and lays backward toward the stern, not quite to the transom. If I then run the motor up, for trailering, the motor cover touches the canvas. It actually depresses the bimini by not quite a half inch, not enough that I'm worried about bending the bimini poles. PROBLEM is this ... the motor touches the canvas and both motor and canvas now show wear from traveling with them in this position. There is almost a wear-through on the canvas; there is pretty good scratching on the motor cover.

I have not been using the bimini "cover", which goes around the canvas and the poles, to neaten them up and protect them. But if I had, then we'd be talking about wearing through the "cover".

Sorry I do not have pictures ... my boat is in storage at the dealer about an hour away.

Whaler "could" have moved the bimini forward an inch, or shortened the bimini by an inch, and this would not happen. I'm thinking the solution has to be tougher than the canvas and smooth and slippery ... a thin slice of ... HDPE or Corian or ...

ANY IDEAS?
