<br />Tomorrow's the big day... I get to pick up my new windows. Binswanger is charging me $45 apiece and they're installing them in the frames. I'll post pictures if I can figure out how. =)

Did you get your new windows?

OT - I spent the night on my boat Friday night. It rained pretty hard early yesterday morning and your bimini had about 30 gallons of water on top of it and it was starting to bend the frame so I drained it off. Hope you don't mind.

lol... I went out to the boat last night and was amazed by how dry the bimini was after all that rain. =)

I picked up the new windows last week and plan to put the windows back on this evening. Will let you know how it goes.

Took my frames to a local powder coater.. couldn't guarantee powder coat wouldn't get on ends of frames, or in space where the windows go. I think he saw all the sealant that was stuck all over the frames and didn't want to attempt cleaning.
