We are down the path of getting one for our Jarkan 10.5 (otherwise I'll get skin cancer!!!).

We are using "Ocean Covers" to come up with the solution. They just replaced our main sail bag and boom tent and will shortly replace our dodger.

www.oceancovers.com.au/

We purchased a new dodger about 6 years ago and the stitching is going and apparently not worth repairing.

Thanks warrina
I have a guy coming down next week to measure.
What is the rough price you are paying for a bimini?

Let us know how it goes, Warrina. I'm also considering one, but it will be a tricky job. Perhaps they could offer a better price if we order two?
(btw, I saw your boat in Prt Stephens late Nov. I anchored in the same bay, but you left early the next day.)

One of the three Jarkans currently for sale has a bimini, refer attached. Our dodger is quite different and we are able to lower it.

Once we receive quote and sketch etc I'll share

As mentioned we also need a new dodger



Our new main bag makes it easy to sail single handed. Ocean Covers did a great job with this.

I too am in need of a new Bimini and a pedestal/wheel cover, although I'm in the harbour. If you're happy could you post his company so others can contact him, thanks.
