The use of canvas covers, especially dark colored ones, in hot, sun-
ny conditions, can result in temperatures inside the boat in excess
of 140°F/60°C. Prolonged high temperatures can heat interior met-
al and other surfaces to the point that brief contact with the skin
may cause serious burns. Carefully remove the cover and allow the
interior to ventilate and cool before allowing anyone on board.
BIMINI CANVAS
Models
All MasterCraft Models have optional bimini tops. Each tower style
has a bimini designed specifically for that tower (ProStar optional
windshield mounted bimini).
Purpose
MasterCraft’s bimini is designed to enhance comfort and protect
boaters from the sun’s rays while on the water.
Location
Bimini tops are designed and built to match each of MasterCraft’s
tower options. The bimini is integrated into its respective tower
and will usually cover the helm and/or midsection of the boat.
Bimini legs and canvas fold to allow minimal wind resistance when
towing, during storage or when riding across a body of water at high
speeds. When folding the bimini up or down, be careful to avoid
pinching fingers between the support legs.
Operation
See each tower’s respective bimini section immediately following.
When trailering a boat or when operating the boat at high speeds,
fold the bimini down to reduce wind resistance. High speeds put
large amounts of air pressure on the bimini legs and can cause
them to collapse causing serious injury and damage to the boat.
ZFT2, ZFT4 AND ZFT7 BIMINI
Models
All boats equipped with a ZFT2, ZFT4 or ZFT7 Power Tower. Though
the biminis look slightly dierent, they function identically.
