Cockpit Shade for H22

[Gary]

I would like to get some shade in the cockpit of my Hunter 22. Has anyone added a bimini? Any recommendations?

Bimini

We installed a great little bimini on our H22 last summer. After much measuring and planning we ordered a bimini from the Sailrite Co., from their catolog. It's the two bow model #i0336VT, in white vinyl only. The size was the critical thing, this model has a length of 66" and a heigth of 42".Just perfect without changing any rigging.and under $200.  We can sail with it up, trim the sails by looking up and around it, and it stores folded back against the back-stay at about a 45d. angle. leaving room to get to the outboard. I installed myself in about one hour.Real nice to have on those hot summer days.I have photos if your interested.Andy Komorowski S/V Super-K

Thanks for the information Andy. I'd love to see the photos. My e-mail address is glshell@bignet.net. Last summer was our first season on the water and we learned quickly that a bimini would be nice. I thought that it would take more $ than what you paid so now I have no excuse. Thanks again.

Bimini For Hunter 22

Andy,I am also interested in see your photos. You may want to post in the photo section or e-mail me at gallagh3@ix.netcom.com.I do have a stern rail on my 22' and wonder it that will cause some problems with the frame.
