Our verdict
A practical $36.99 accessory for boat owners: a pair of adjustable marine-grade aluminum rear support poles that keep a folded bimini top up and out of the way. They extend from 95 to 105 cm, come with flip-locks and mounting screws, and fit most bimini top frames. Measure your frame's requirements first, since the pole length range is fixed.
- Best for
- Boat owners who want to prop a folded bimini top up and out of the way instead of letting it hang.
- Skip if
- Your frame needs support poles outside the 95-105 cm range -- and note delivery is limited to the 48 continental US.
Bimini tops are great shade when they are up and a nuisance when they are folded -- which is the problem these adjustable rear support poles solve. Sold by Leader Accessories for $36.99, the kit holds a folded top up and out of the way so it stays off your boat's interior and out of your sightlines when not in use.
The package is compact and complete: 2 support poles, 2 flip-locks, and 4 screws. The marine-grade aluminum poles telescope so you can adjust them to suit different length requirements, with an extendable range of 95-105 cm. For reference, the listing gives the outer tube as 25 mm in diameter with 1.5 mm thickness, and the inner tube as 21.6 mm in diameter with 1.3 mm thickness. The design is universal and will fit most bimini top frames.
