Bimini

The first mod - requiring the first hole.

They say that to drill the first hole in your boat is the hardest. Well, it's done now.
How was it done?

This came as a flat-pack kit - I just bought the screws. Fitting was pretty easy, it just had to not get in the way of the boom when under sail.

Was it worth it?

Yes. It provides limited shade under way and when stopped.

Could it have been done better?

Not really. On very sunny days with visitors, I have a shade-cloth that ties to the bimini and fully covers the cockpit. This is good for lunch / fishing but it's difficult to see how a different setup could provide fuller coverage under way.
