Our verdict

A Pacific blue 3-bow shade top at $99.99, with six widths from 54-60 to 85-90 inches, all 6 feet long and 46 inches high. The marine-grade 600D polyester or solution-dyed canvas has double overlapped stitching, and the package includes a stainless rear support pole, all-stainless hardware, and a color-coordinated storage boot. The listing caps speed at 25 MPH with the top open; it is currently out of stock.

Best for
Smaller-boat owners who want a Pacific blue 6-foot, 3-bow canopy with a stainless rear support pole included.
Skip if
You may need to return it after a fit check -- it is a sale item -- or you are outside the 48 continental US.

Why 3.6/5: Lifted by a complete top (aluminum frame, rear pole, stainless hardware, storage boot) and a 54"-60" price level with the lowest of the four. Held back by every size sold out on Oct 25, no fabric or UV rating, no warranty stated and a crossed-out price that may bar returns.

The 3-Bow Bimini Top in Pacific blue brings a sharper color to the 6-foot, 46-inch-high end of Leader Accessories' bimini range. At $99.99 it is one of the lowest-priced ways into the brand's complete bimini platform, and it ships with everything needed to mount it: fabric, frame, hardware, and a stainless rear support pole.

The canvas choices are marine-grade 600D polyester or 600D solution-dyed fabric -- a version built for color retention -- both assembled with double overlapped stitching. The frame is 1-inch diameter aluminum with double-walled main bow legs and free quick-release mounts, using all stainless-steel mounting hardware. Four adjustable nylon straps tension the front and rear, and a color-coordinated zippered storage boot and assembly instructions come in the box.

Pacific blue is one of 13 color options. Six sizes cover 54"-60", 61"-66", 67"-72", 73"-78", 79"-84", and 85"-90" mounting spans, all 6 feet long by 46 inches high. The stainless rear support pole props the frame while in use and keeps the top stored out of the way when folded. The listing notes a 25 MPH maximum speed with the top open.

To size it, measure between the pivotal mounting points on each side of the boat for width, then straight up from that point for height. Shipping and returns: delivery within the 48 continental US only (no Alaska, Hawaii, PO boxes, APO/FPO, or international), free on orders of $70 or more (this top qualifies) and a flat $10 otherwise, with 1-2 business days of processing and 2-6 business days in transit. Returns run 30 days; defective, wrong, or incomplete items get a prepaid return label, personal-reason returns are at the buyer's expense, and sale items and gift cards are not returnable.

How it compares

The four Leader Accessories 3-bow tops list the same 6'L x 46"H canopy, 1" aluminum frame, stainless rear support pole, hardware and storage boot, so they differ in color, price by size and stock. At 54"-60" this Pacific Blue top is $99.99, level with the 3-Bow Bimini Top in Burgundy and $20.00 under the 3-Bow Bimini Top in Beige ($119.99); the 3-Bow Bimini Top in White is $149.99. At 61"-66" it is the lowest of the four at $109.99 (Beige $129.99, Burgundy and White $159.99). From 73"-78" up it costs more than the Beige at each size: $139.99 at 73"-78" (Beige $129.99, Burgundy and White $179.99), $179.99 at 79"-84" (Beige $159.99, the other two $189.99) and $159.99 at 85"-90" (Beige and White $149.99, Burgundy $199.99). At 67"-72" it is $169.99, level with White and above Burgundy ($119.99) and Beige ($139.99).

On Oct 25, 2026, this Pacific Blue, the Burgundy and the Beige were sold out in every size; the White 85"-90" ($149.99, with $199.99 crossed out) was the only size of the four in stock. Who each suits: this Pacific Blue top for a 54"-66" span or a blue canopy, though no size is available now; the Burgundy for a 67"-72" span; the Beige for 73"-84"; the White for an 85"-90" span you need to buy today. All four are 6-foot canopies; the 4-bow tops are listed at 8'L x 54"H.

Shipping, returns and warranty

Read on Oct 25, 2026 from the store's shipping policy, refund policy and terms of service. Leader Accessories is both the maker and the store, so there is no separate maker warranty page to check against.

  • Where it ships: the 48 continental United States only. No PO boxes and no military addresses (APO, FPO). Confirm the address before ordering, because later changes may cost extra.
  • Shipping fee: free on orders of $70 or more, otherwise $10. The policy adds that the store usually runs promotions that make shipping free on most items, without saying which.
  • Timing: 1 to 2 business days to process, then 2 to 6 business days in transit, by USPS, UPS or another carrier, with tracking by email. Customized or monogrammed items take 4 or more working days to process. Report a shipping problem within 30 days of ordering.
  • Return window: 30 days after you receive the item to request a return or exchange. Contact the store first for the return address; the item goes back in its original packaging and in a state that allows resale.
  • Who pays return shipping: the store sends a pre-paid label once it accepts a return, which its policy ties to items that arrive defective, incorrect or incomplete (send the order number, photos and videos). For a return for personal reasons, return freight is at your expense. If the store ships the wrong item, it reimburses the return shipping fee when it receives the item back.
  • Refunds: to the original payment method after the warehouse inspects the return; the policy says the credit can take up to 7 to 10 more business days. If the value of the products left on the order is under $30, a $10 shipping fee is deducted from the refund; the policy does not say whether that applies to a one-item order returned in full.
  • Exchanges and cancellations: an exchange is possible only within 24 hours of ordering, before the package ships, and only if the item is in stock. An order that has been processed cannot be canceled.
  • Not returnable: sale items and gift cards, custom or personalized products, perishables, personal care goods and hazardous materials. The policy does not define "sale items".
  • Warranty: none stated. The shipping and refund policies do not mention one, the store's /pages/warranty address returned a 404 page on Oct 25, 2026, and section 13 of the terms of service provides products "as is", without warranties of durability or fitness for a particular purpose, except as the store expressly states.
  • Prices and errors: the terms let the store change prices without notice and correct errors in descriptions, prices or shipping charges, including by canceling an order after it is placed.
  • Contact: [email protected] is the only contact the policies give; the store's /pages/contact and FAQ addresses returned 404 pages.

Where the pages disagree

  • Shipping speed: the product page banner says "Free Same-Day Shipping over $70". The shipping policy lists 1 to 2 business days of processing before the 2 to 6 day delivery window, and sets the free-shipping line at "greater or equal to $70".
  • Exchanges: the banner says "30-Day Easy Return & Exchange". The refund policy gives 30 days to request a return but allows an exchange only within 24 hours of ordering and before shipment.
  • Guarantee wording: the refund page is headed "30-Day Money-Back Guarantee", but the text under it covers defective, incorrect or incomplete items and says returns for personal reasons are at your expense.

For this product, the review's $99.99 (the 54"-60" size) clears the $70 free-shipping line, so no $10 fee; the page shows $149.99 crossed out beside it ("Save $50"), which may make it a sale item the refund policy will not take back; and all six sizes were sold out on Oct 25, 2026.

What we liked

  • Marine-grade 600D polyester canvas or 600D solution-dyed fabric with double overlapped stitching
  • Includes a stainless rear support pole that supports the frame when the top is stored
  • 1-inch aluminum frame with double-walled main bow legs and free quick-release mounts
  • All stainless-steel mounting hardware, a color-coordinated zippered storage boot, and assembly instructions included
  • Four adjustable nylon straps for the front and rear

Worth noting

  • On sale -- Leader Accessories' refund policy excludes sale items from returns
  • Currently out of stock per the store's listing
  • Max 25 MPH with the top open; measure your mounting width before ordering
  • Leader Accessories ships only within the 48 continental US (not Alaska, Hawaii, or international)

Sources & verification

What this review is based on and the day we last read it. Specs and claims from the maker are the maker’s own; the verdict and the rating are ours.

From the store

What we couldn’t verify

  • The page names two fabrics, '600D polyester canvas & 600D solution dyed fabric', and does not say which one this Pacific Blue top uses. It gives no fabric weight, UV or fade rating, or waterproof rating, only 'protection from sun and rain'.
  • The review's body calls the solution-dyed fabric 'built for color retention'; the page makes no such claim and gives no fade rating.
  • 'Maximum strength' (frame) and 'superior support' (rear poles) are the page's words, with no load, wind or corrosion rating. The only limit it states is 25MPH boat speed with the top open.
  • The page gives two color counts: '13 optional fabric colors' (13 names, 2 two-tone) and, further down, '10 Colors Available' (10 names). It also says '13 Different Sizes', which counts the 3-bow and 4-bow sizes together, not this top's six.
  • The page says 'Boat Bimini frames are available in widths from 54" to 84"', while this top's size list runs to 85"-90"; it also mentions an 'available stripe option' that the size list does not show.
  • $99.99 is the 54"-60" size, which the page opens on. Prices do not rise with width: 67"-72" is $169.99, above 73"-78" at $139.99.
  • Every size was sold out on Oct 25, 2026, and the page gives no restock date or lead time.
  • Warranty: none is stated on the page or in the store's policy pages, and the store's warranty page returned a 404 on Oct 25, 2026; whether the frame, hardware or canvas is covered is left open.
