Yahoo - Sliding Bimini This tip submitted by Ed Montague The article (below) and the picture for the Sliding Bimini are self-explaining. It makes moving our bimini possible so we can cover most any part of the boat between the backstay and the mast. "Don Dresen from Parker, FL, always seemed to be dodging his Bimini, and it rarely seemed to be in just the right place aboard his Catalina 25. When he wasn't sailing, he wished he could move it aft to make it easier to climb in and out of the cockpit. In the rain, he wished the Bimini were farther forward so he could leave the hatch open. He solved the problem by removing the bail from a pair of genoa track slides and attaching Bimini "deck hinges. The Bimini frame now slides forward and aft several feet on the genoa track."
