Unless you have a highly custom application I suggest you buy one off the shelf. I bought one from overton's before, and was satisfied. Take a few
quick measurements, width, height, length; and start checking out places like overton's, west, etc.

Youcan find good deals on ebay and maybe even one that is off a 206 captiva. MPII bought one off ebay for his 206 captiva. Probably not the highest
of quality but is keeps the sun off of you and has not ripped or broken while running on plane.
Get me to the dam lake ASAFP!

Yea, I bought it new off of ebay. It was a 4 Bow. It came with everything you need but the rear support poles which I bought from ebay. Like was
said above, it was not the best (sunbrella) but it definately keeps the sun off and I have been running on plane with it with no rips, tears, etc. I
think I have 175 in it for everything. My 206 is 1992 and I Mounted it to the windshield, further up. They came in different sizes.
