I am wanting to know who or where has the best ones for my 18' jet. want one that can be left up while running. The only ones I know of are cheap universal ones from Cabelas.

Yea but the cheap Cabela ones are the same as any where else.I bought one with the sunbrella, it's not bad. I called a dealer and they wanted $400.00 for the same thing, they are made by Westland. And Westland has the market cover with tops and covers. You can run up to 40 with the westland bimini. If you want to go faster you will need SS tubing. With that you can expect to pay $500.00 and up depending on how bizzy the shop is. Even if you go to a shop and get one like the westland you will pay twice the price. If you bend the front it could be replaced with SS tubing, the front is the weak spot on them any way. It seems with the price of fuel most are driving to one spot and sittng with the top up, then put it down to run back to the dock at the end of the day.
