Does anyone know where to get a bimini top that snaps to the windshield? I have all the hardware on the 96' Dynasty 190 I just bought, but they didnt have the top. I have been looking on a ton of websites, but that style never comes up. Thanks
Re: Trouble finding bimini top that snaps to windshield
What you're looking for is called a convertible top, not a bimini. Due to the variation in windshield styles from one boat manufacturer to another, I doubt you'll find one to fit your boat online. I suggest you contact a local upholstery shop or marine canvas supplier and have one custom made.

Re: Trouble finding bimini top that snaps to windshield
I took a chance on one I found in eBay a few years ago. The snaps in my windshield frame are on a snap in clip and can move side to side so I did not have to worry about the spacing matching. If you like scavenger hunts then a search like this is kind of fun. It was really clean and came with all support poles and brackets and a nice boot. $19.99 plus $20.oo shipping

It may also be that you can use a standard free-standing bimini and just have custom eisenglass front panels made that zipper to the bimini top and those snap to the windshield. Easy to run in foul weather and you still have the stand-up height of a bimini.
