Introducing Power Bimini For Pontoon And Deck Boats

Published: Monday, June 1, 2020

SureShade may be best known to boaters for their telescoping boat shade systems for center consoles and cruisers, but they are making waves in the marine industry once again by introducing their latest product: the SureShade Power Bimini.

Leveraging SureShade’s extensive expertise designing premium shade solutions for the marine industry, the SureShade Power Bimini (formerly known in the market as the PWR-ARM by Schwintek, Inc.) is a durable, high-tech electric shade solution for pontoon and deck boats.

Boaters want a better experience. When they’re onboard, they want convenient, easy-to-operate features and accessories that can make their day on the water stress-free. The SureShade Power Bimini alleviates the cumbersome functionality of a manual pontoon or deck boat top by allowing them to automatically set up and adjust their bimini top at the push of a button when they want, where they want, and the moment they want it.

Powered by two, heavy-duty 12VDC actuators, the SureShade Power Bimini can be easily operated at the helm with the flip of a switch. This gives boaters the freedom to quickly adjust their top to a fully opened position, a radar or angled position, or lay it down completely. Within seconds, they can go from sitting in the shade to soaking up the sun.

The Power Bimini also comes with a thoughtfully designed telescoping frame that lets the top sufficiently fit boats ranging from 92-inches to 102-inches wide. Plus, it offers 30 percent more coverage than a standard bimini top with a 10-foot long canvas cover made from marine-grade, fade-resistant materials. This durably fabricated canvas even comes equipped with zippered pockets and a boot for easy storage when not in use.

Another defining feature of the SureShade Power Bimini is the construction of the extra-strength, anodized aluminum alloy frame that’s been thoroughly tested to withstand outdoor elements and the rigors of the marine lifestyle. This frame has been engineered with an emphasis to maintain stability and keep the canvas tightly secured in place, no matter what position it’s in.

Best of all, SureShade Power Bimini is available for easy DIY aftermarket installation.
