Submitted by terboz123 on Wed, 2011-05-04 08:20
Hey guys.
Currently have a "soft top" binmini on my pro line 21 walk around. Looking into getting a fibreglass binimi roof with rocket holders on the back. Just curious to know can anyone recommned a decent company to do this? keen on using some one good, price isnt really an issue, as the old saying goes you get what you pay for. Any help would be great

Why not try and import one
Why not try and import one in..? Wil possibly be cheaper. Even if you could get it sent in someone else's boat and help them with a bit of freight.
Try Glenware Fiberglass in fre on 0418940300
Or even ring and ask Michael Eldrid at North Port Lifters. They have stainless guys, shipwrights and he is switched on to fidling and fitting things so he would be worth a call aswell.

if you up for the work, go
if you up for the work, go get yourself a fibreglass hard top cover for a ute and make up the supports only.
saw one done real nice not to long ago and saved a packet on what they quoted him from the marine shop.

Hey mateI have used Graeme
Hey mate
I have used Graeme from Deepwater marine -top bloke and more than fair prices -he is a fibreglass guy only -as for the frame, the factory hardtops are on Alloy frames (anodised) and i would stick with alloy -lighter and you can go to a heavier gauge (thicker) pole which looks better and is easier and cheaper to manufacture + heaps of people do ally whilst only a select few do stainless - you could even get it powder coated (black eh?) to suit that shiny hull of yours :-)

Hey guys thanks for everyones
Hey guys
thanks for everyones help, as of this stage, due to the fact ive just booked exmouth in july/aug i wont be looking at doing it winter. What i will be doing is getting a frame made up for some Rod holders to go above the binimi. Been doing some cost prices, and i gotta take into consideration: Clean skins, Re wiring of lights (which i will do my self as ima spark) but parts, rocket holders etc etc just adds up to much when ive just bought me new toy 6 weeks ago.
So as fo thise stage its just a set of rod holders.!
