Safari Top
A Safari Top is zipped on to the back of a dodger or bimini and is supported by lines and battens instead of the traditional stainless steel frame.
Why a Safari Top?
- Provide further shelter from wind, sun and spray
- Simple to remove
- Costs less than a Bimini
When choosing a Safari Top, things to consider include:
- What will the top attach to and with what fasteners?
- Do you want any windows/skylights?
