M_Boats: New Bimini

I've been thinking how to rig a bimini on my M17 for a while now, since I like to be out sailing for days at a time. Keeping in mind the location of the mainsheet, backstay, jib lines, and having shade where I spend a majority of time in the cockpit, this is what I came up with: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkptmRlShvQ (Part 1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cv-Cz4Rm4bw (Part 2) I will move the bimini aft an inch or two more. The mainsheet just baaaarely brushes the front edge right now, but enlarging the holes and restitching should only take about 20 minutes. Did the stitching on my next door neighbors cheapy little sewing machine. George Johnson M17 #600 "Sancha"
