  • Need Shade Suggestions

    My wife has decided that she would like me to put something on the boat that provides her and the kids with some shade. I have no interest in permanently mounting anything.. Any suggestions for something removable aside from a big umbrella? Maybe I'll just fish under bridges when she's in the boat?!?
    Shut up and FISH!!

    A big patio umbrella in a rod holder should do the trick.
    I work just enough to pay for my fishing habit.

      Bimini top is the only good option. You Can put it on & take it off with just the fittings left on the boat gunnels.

        That is what I do when the wife and/or kids are on the boat. Works great for us.

          Think this is what I'm leaning towards.. Really don't want to mount all the hardware for a bimini. Thanks for the input guys!!

              A bimini is the best option. It's pretty hard to find a GOOD umbrella anyway.

                Maybe I should just not read the posts before I answer......

                  Thats a good reason why its a bad idea to start taking wife, girlfriends etc fishing (or hunting) with you.

                    I was just looking for other removable ideas besides the umbrella.. I'd already pretty much figured I'd have to go that way. Just really didn't want to drill a bunch of holes and mount bimini track and eyes. I picked up an umbrella today -- we'll see how that works.
