I’m looking for someone with a 220 that can take a few photos of mounting hardware locations from a factory installed Bimini. I want to invest in the best stainless steel poles and mounting hardware available. Any suggestions for a great vendor would be appreciated.

It may be a few days before I get back to my boat, but I'll try to take some pictures for you. I have the same year and model boat. What I can tell you is that it's held in place at three different points per side, and each point uses different hardware. The front of the bimini uses removable poles held by a quick release spring loaded device at the hull, and a pin at the top. The middle point are anchored to the hand rail and the rearmost point uses a pin and hinge arrangement. If you search "Bimini Top Parts Identification Guide" you'll see what I'm talking about. The Bimini that came with my boat is very heavy duty, much stronger than the lightweignt ones held by a strap and snap in the front. I'll try to get some detailed close ups of the hardware later on.

Thank you Mike! Adding this will make my wife very happy.

Here's a couple pics I took this morning.

Thank you that helps a lot.
