I am always impressed by the number of people that get a hold of me after they have installed their bimini top to tell me how much they like it. These loyal customers go out of their way to send me an or a phone call to thank me for a great top at a fair price. I start to think about how often I have done that for a company I have purchased something from. I can only recall one time. I called McDonalds because I was so impressed the soda did not taste like syrup. It's not that I'm not satisfied with the purchases I've made. Overall I am. Typically though I only call if there is a problem. Then I weigh the option of calling or not. Will I be on hold, will I understand the person I speak to. Will they understand me? What are the chances my issue will be resolved the way I want? Thus unless I have a huge problem with the product I purchased I do nothing.
Having a customer call or email to praise how much they like the product we provide is not lost on me or our company. We realize it is a great compliment to how we do business. Most of our expectations as consumers are simply met but rarely exceeded. I am proud to know how often we exceed the expectations of our customers. I'm proud of the work we turn out, the workforce we employ and the value of being Made in the USA.

Why buy a pontoon boat longer than 8' than?
It gets hot out there on the water. Sun beats down and you feel like you could melt. You want to be on the boat and take a bunch of friends but the same thing always happens on a day like this. Everyone uses about 8' of the boat - in the back under the bimini top. Change that. Invest in a double bimini top. How much is your comfort really worth, or that of your family and friends? Why buy a pontoon boat larger than 8' long if that is the only amount of space you will all occupy for the majority of time on the water? When you weigh the amount you paid for your big beautiful boat and compare it to the price of a double bimini...well lets face it, there is no comparison. Start getting your money's worth out of every foot of your boat. It doesn't matter the size of your pontoon, we have a way to keep more of it in the shade. Relax, keep cool, we've got you covered - Northstar Double Bimini Tops.

The Best Pontoon Bimini Top...Sirius Bimini's
Wow. There are a lot of pontoon bimini tops out there. Here at Northstar we have been wildly successful with our current aftermaket bimini tops. Initially, we attract potential buyers with our pricing. When they get our bimini tops they tend to tell their friends not only about the price but about the quality. Also about our service. Outstanding on both accounts. We are tapping into a great market by offering great bimini tops at a low price.
There has been a demand for more though. More quality, more options, better deck mounts, and a range of other suggestions. We are listening. We have launched a new line of bimini tops that we are calling "Sirius" bimini tops. And they are just that...serious. Serious quality, serious materials, Serious guarantee. Let me highlight what sets this bimini apart from ALL others...even from our own.
Sirius Bimini Tops are more expensive than our normal bimini tops. They are more expensive for the following reasons:
9.25oz Marine Grade Sunbrella Fabric - 10 Year Warranty
4 bow 1.25" Square Tube Frame with Metal Fittings
Front Braces and Rear Braces Standard
Trailering Braces
Tenara Thread - Lifetime Guarantee
Premium Storage Boot with Velcro Flap for Easy Install Around Stern Light
Wire for Stern Light Included
Color Coordinated Binding/Edging on Bimini Top and ALL 4 Zippered Pockets
Quick Release Stainless Steel Accon Marine Deck Mounts
Stainless Steel Eye Ends in Bottom of Frame and ALL Braces
8' or 8'6" Wide
8' , 9', or 10' Long
The Sirius Bimini Top will make your boat look better than ever. We wanted to come out with a bimini top that is the end all be all for the aftermarket. What we have found out is that it is not only the end all be all in the aftermarket...it is better than any OEM pontoon bimini top as well.
The trailering braces are great for allowing the bimini top to sit only a few inches off the deck of your boat for transporting down the highway. The trailering braces utilize the same deck mounts the rear braces use.
The premium storage boot is just that. Premium. We sew this boot together in three sections so there is a difinitive front, top, and back to the boot. this allows the boot to be completely form fitting around the corners of the frame. We use two #8 YKK zippers with metal sliders that zip towards the center of the boot. We use a velcro flap to allow an easy install of the boot around the stern light instead of having to drop the boot down over the top of the stern light.
The Accon Deck Mounts make this top very easy to take on and off the boat. It makes using the front braces easier as well. The biggest advantage to the Accon Deck Mounts is there are no pull pins. If your pontoon has furniture taller than the top rail of your boat you know how valuable this feature is. The pull pins tend to push into the back of the furniture and may leave a mark. There are no pull pins with this system. Super easy to use and with the stainless construction of this part it is very strong. It only made sense to us that if the deck mount is going to be stainless so should the eye ends in the bottom of the frame that attach the frame to those Accon Deck Mounts.
This bimini top does not compare to ANYTHING else in the aftermarket on ANY website. You will pay nearly this same amount for other companies standard bimini top. There is nothing standard about this bimini top in its construction or design. With a lifetime guarantee on the thread you can be certain this will last you for more years than any other bimini top you have ever had. It will look better too. If you have pre-existing deck mounts on your boat you want to utilize we will work with you to make sure you can use them with this bimini if possible.
We offer a 30 day money back guarantee that you will love this top. If you don't send it back for a full refund of the purchase price plus freight.
The boat owners that have purchased this type of bimini top agree that it is better than their original and they are glad they made the switch.
