Repairing a Bimini Top

General Boats and Motors
1

The top on my Bimini got a small 3" x 3" L shaped tear (Mangrove branch) poked in it. The top itself is in good shape so I am not ready to replace it yet. Does anyone have any idea as to a good way to patch it so it will last a bit longer? Is there some kind of vinyl tape/patch out there that I am unaware of?

Don’t say Duct tape.

Thanks

If you want to ‘fix’ it, have it patched and/or sewed. If you want to do it again, try an adhesive/glue on patch … :wink:

If it’s only 3"x3" and is a fabric top you might try an old style iron-on patch from a fabric shop.

I wish I was having mangrove branches hit my bimini:smiley:
