I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a bimini that would fit on a Venture 222.
Thanks
Geoffrey

I don't know that much about the Venture 222, but here's some possible links that may help, Geoffrey...
Link #1 .....
Link #2
Also check Sailnet and Overtons (the latter has some very good pricing on bimini's).
BTW, it seems there's a
book on restoring boats that focuses on the Venture 222.
And just for fun, the original brochure (which unfortunately doesn't show any bimini)...

My 222 had a bimini on it when I bought it.
A) A canvas shop could custom make you one but that might be a bit pricey.
B) If memory serves I had a pretty generic top, you should be able to find one that will work from one of the on line sources but you might have to cut it down a bit. Mine was too tall to sail with. I had planned on cutting the legs a bit shorter, then somebody else solved my problem and stole it.
Do you have a canvas enclosure for your poptop? If you go with option A you might look into having one made while you're at it.
