Roll up new windows

Great, I’m glad it was helpful. It can be tricky so think it through carefully before punching the holes in your bimini.
Good luck.

stayput bungee and knob

Thank you for your comments. That is exactly what I want to do. I can buy the bungee and knobs from Sailrite. I purchased and new bimini and enclosure and do not want to roll up the windows.

Rolling up vinly windows

That is easy to understand John.
It kind of depends on the spacing of the bows of the bimini. A common method is attaching a stayput knob to a bow of the bimini and installing the stayput bungee into the panel that is swinging up.
A cheater way, would be to install grommets into the lower corner of the panel and tie it up to the bow of the bimini.

In general though, swinging these panels up, usually requires planning ahead and building the panel to accommodate it.

I have also done sort of a half way roll up. I utilize the snaps on the bottom and bring it up to a roll up strap above it and snap to the strap. This sort of pulls it up by half and can work on some bigger boats.

Sometimes you can get lucky and swing the front up, hope that works out for you.
