[C320-list] Bimini pole

[Jeffrey Brown]

When I bought our boat we found a piece of canvas that can be used to attach to the dodger and come back over the cockpit to offer shade, just like a bimini but it didn’t come with anything to hold the canvas up, we we used some PVC and attached it to the backstay cables. This has only be used occasionally since it’s pretty flimsy. Any idea of how to improve this using stainless 1” tubing, best way to mount it to the backstay, etc. 

If anyone has some pictures how they’ve done it that would be great.
