Boat vs Pontoon

Pontoon biminis are generally larger than those on a bowrider. On our 20' pontoon we have a 11' bimini. It is simple to set up and the frame is sturderer than what we had on our bowrider. The bimini on the pontoon is higher than the one on the bowrider. This means that later in the day when the sun starts to go down, the shade spot gets smaller. We carry a couple of large towels and clip them to the bimini on the sunny side with 2" spring clamps from the HW store.

We also have a pop up changing room on our pontoon boat with a portipoti. Unlike the cramped space on a bowrider, adults can actually use it.
