Bimini on an RT188, pics

[Skeeterbait]

Again, thanks for the pictures but I have a question for you. When the bimini top is up, can you set in the back deck seat and able to troll crankbaits out the back or does the bimini not allow you to set up in the back deck seat?

As I have it set it would not be possible to sit in the rear seat. Not a problem for us because the wife likes to fish early with the bimini down then mid day when it gets hot, she pulls the bimini up and lounges, reads, preps lunch, etc., while I fish from the front. This was her preferred mid day activity before we bought the bimini, it just gives her more comfort and lets me duck under to cool off. But, remember a 4 strap bimini can be adjusted some to lean forward and back. So you could adjust it forward enough to allow someone to sit in the back chair if you wanted. You can also buy slide rails to mount on the gunnels that would allow you to slide the whole bimini forward and back when needed. They offer it as an option.
