Looking around the marine industry and all of its aftermarket products, there is really only one product that can give an older boat a new look for really next to nothing. A bimini top. When made correctly a bimini top can really set your boat off right. The opposite can happen as well. A poorly made bimini top can make your boat an embarrasement on the water. What is even more embarrasing is over paying for a sub par bimini top. The problem in the aftermarket industry right now is that the consumer has only had a few options for ANY bimini top.
When searching for bimini tops online you are bombarded with websites. Most of those websites are selling a limited number of brands. Take a close look at who actually makes the bimini tops. Most of the websites are merely distributors of a select brand. There are few that actually make the bimini tops AND frames themselves. Make sure you check out the warranty as well. The material the bimini top is made of will carry a warranty offered by the material producer such as Glen Raven Mills for Sunbrella. They carry a 10 year warranty. What about the craftsmanship though? Some offer a few years, some more. It seems there are companies out there even charging you for an extended warranty. Seems kinda crazy to me. The main cost of a bimini top is the material and that is already covered. The rest of the bimini top is thread, binding (edging), zippers, and maybe some buttons. Bottom line these are all very inexpensive items. Why not cover them without additional cost? Northstar covers there craftsmanship for as long as you own it.
You may have a difficult time finding them online right now : www.northstarproductsinc.com. You will soon find the prices are very low when you compare them to others. We ARE the manufacturer and designer of BOTH the bimini and the frame. There is NO middleman. You will find not only the best looking bimini tops on the market at the best price with an outstanding warranty, but also something that is becoming extinct...service after the sale. These are American made products at a price that we believe is unbeatable. Oh, one more thing, when you refer a friend to us and they buy a bimini top from us we will send you a check for 25.00. The more you refer the more checks you get. Just make sure your friend tells us you sent them.
We encourage you to look around and compare our bimini tops with others. Check out their warranties. Check out the way the sew the bimini top together. You may be surprised to know that most websites that sell bimini tops have no idea how they are sewn together. The reason being they didn't sew them together. If you do get an answer you will find they are put together with a single lockstitch machine. That means ONE stitch is holding the top together. Ours are put together with two and three lockstitches. The advantage is so the top doesn't fall apart in about 2 years. Look we don't want to replace your bimini top every two years. We look at your bimini top as an investment, just like you do. Invest in our company and you will be glad you did.
