This weekend I damaged one of my bimini poles.

I have done some searching online and on this site but sounds like for OEM replacements I am out of luck.

Basically I have 2 options:

#1- replace whole top including cover? (my cover is in great shape so I don't want to do this just need OEM frame)
#2 - repair existing pole like others on this site have done.

Has anybody had any luck in finding OEM replacement bimini frames?

Check with Great Lakes Boat Tops. They made the original one.

The Great Lakes place gave me a quote for just the frame... over $350 for frame and shipping. They have to ship as freight.

I ended up doing what most people do on this forum which is repaire with steel pole on the inside of the damage area, using JB Weld to hold it together.

so far so good it is working
