Mark,
I got the factory bimini. I will agree it's less than perfect and does nothing to protect the helm. However the only way I can see making a bimini that will protect the helm requires it to be substantially higher - and that means the boom needs to be raised. I'll live with it for a while and see how it goes...

In hindsight I would elect to do more things after-market instead of selecting factory options (the bimini being one). I realized options were (generally) over-priced, but you have to weigh in the convenience factor.
