The photo gallery below shows various types of bimini and enclosure options for sailboats.
Sailboat Bimini Tops and Enclosures
Sailboat Covers Galore!
There was an article in a local magazine recently that featured a photograph of a sailboat dock at Mountain Harbor Resort. We were pretty excited about the photograph, since we recognized that a number of the boats shown featured canvas work that was fabricated by the Black Dog Design Team. So, not having received permission to use the magazine’s photo, we decided to grab a camera and take our own!
Much of Black Dog Design’s work can be seen in this photograph of sailboats at Mountain Harbor.
The photograph above shows boat covers, bimini tops and frames, mainsail covers, line bags, helm covers, and even a cover to protect the boat name on the stern from the elements.
The custom covers on this Hunter sailboat not only protect the mainsail, cockpit and bimini, but there is also a cover to protect the boat’s artwork on its stern!
All projects are custom and require careful measurement and the making of patterns prior to cutting and sewing the fabrics. Bimini frames can be fabricated according to customers’ wishes and the space available on the boat. Black Dog Design can also create covers for windows and the cockpit areas as desired.
Beautiful Beneteau Sailboat Gets A New Bimini and Dodger
Here’s a photo of a new bimini top and dodger Black Dog Design, Inc., recently completed.
Mike designed and fabricated the frame, and the fabrics were then patterned to work with the new frame.
The fabric for the bimini is “Stamoid”, a vinyl-coated woven polyester that is waterproof, easily cleanable, cool to sit under, and that folds and stores well; it is perfect for this application.
The clear vinyl windows for the dodger are “Strataglass”, that is “the staple of virtually every quality canvas manufacturer.” Among its many good properties for this application, it also blocks UV light.
