We own a 2004 X7 with a new dimension tower and mastercraft bimini that snaps into the tower. When we bought the boat we noticed that several of the bimini brackets were bent - as you can see in the pictures but they continued to work until the end of last summer.

I need to replace them now and can’t find anyone to help. The dealer who we bought the boat from is no longer in business.

I have spoke with new dimension and they are telling me it’s a mastercraft part but I don’t know who to contact for help.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Thanks
Brandon

I spoke with ND - yesterday who refered me to TACO Marine who did not have a clue what I was looking for. ND says its a Mastercraft thing.

I will say that that Chad and ND was very nice about the whole thing. I'm confident he would have helped me if he could.

Hey, those are standard parts. Any place that makes biminis are going to have them. I personally would try to find a shop that does boat repair or has parts. Check the Marine connection in Ft. Pierce FL. 2970 North US Highway 1 Fort Pierce, FL 34946-8740 - (772) 465-6460

I am 10 min form New Dimension, they wont have them because they only design the towers to accommodate MC Biminis, not the top itself.

Good luck. Wade

I just recycled an Overtons catalog the other day and I know they have been selling those parts for like... decades now. www.overtons.com

Awesome, just solved one of my problems. Anyone know how to replace the post that this hinge bolt goes through? Mine is quite bent..

New Dimension IS NOT the place to call! Not a part supplied from them. The bimini tops are made for MasterCraft by a vendor. Your local MasterCraft dealer should be able to get that part for you easily. As this part it still used today on MasterCraft bimini top
