Stainless Dodger & Bimini Bows

Sturdy 1-inch stainless steel, from a Freedom 33 with a very wide cockpit.

The bimini is 106 inches wide, has 3 bows, and is about 4' high when set up.
The dodger is 86 inches wide and has 2 bows.

$75 apiece, or both for $100.
We're in St. Mary's, Georgia, heading south in December 2013.
Send us a PM or call 206-232-1234.

We can throw in the canvas top for the bimini, but it's heavily patched. We've been using it "temporarily" for 6 years now.

Re: Stainless Dodger & Bimini Bows

We never got around to installing the dodger. We recently decided to build a hard dodger instead of sewing new canvas, which is why we are selling all the stainless bows.

I've uploaded a photo of the dodger bows.

Re: Stainless Dodger & Bimini Bows

By the way, we've gotten quite a few calls about the dodger and bimini bows, but the big question is, what will it take to ship them to your location?

So, just to help that question, here are some rough specs for shipping purposes:

Bimini frame: About 9 feet wide, about 6 feet high, and 6 inches thick. Weight somewhere around 20-25 pounds.
Dodger frame: About 7 feet wide, about 3-1/2 feet high, and 4 inches thick. Weight under 15 pounds.

Re: Stainless Dodger & Bimini Bows

As of February 2014, we have a buyer for the bimini, but the dodger is still available. You can have it for $60. I have heard that FedEx ground is a reasonable way to ship this sort of thing.

Re: Stainless Dodger & Bimini Bows

Several people have expressed interest in the dodger, but shipping has been an issue. Here are the details, in case you want to get a shipping quote:
Dimensions: 81 inches by 39 inches by 3 inches
Weight: 15 pounds
It will not be in a box, but I can tie it securely and bubble-wrap the ends.
Pickup will be from a commercial boatyard. We do not have a car and cannot take it to a shipping dropoff location.

Here is a better photograph of it -- you can zoom in to see the deck hinges.
