Mounting the Assembled Frame

Exact mounting specifications are not provided since 

different pontoons have different fence configurations. 

What is required is 72” for 8’ long canopies and 

approximately 74” for 10’ long canopies 

(Fig.15)

.

Mounting begins by positioning the completed frame 

assembly onto the pontoon to decide where the deck 

mounts should go.

NOTE: 

When replacing an old frame, consider temporarily 

reusing the center mounting bracket.

 A

 B

Decide what area the canopy will cover. For instance,
• Will the top cover the driver and the passenger?

• Does the top cover as far back on the deck as needed?

• Is the top shading a sundeck?

• Where will the top lay when folded flat?

1. 

Make preparations to the pontoon for installation of the 

completed frame assembly as follows:

A. 

Remove existing deck mounts from the pontoon’s 

fence railing.

B. 

Align the pivot holes of two H-brackets 

(Fig.16A)

 with the 

mounting holes of each primary bow assembly 

(Fig.16B)

.

C. 

Secure the H-brackets to the left and right primary bow 

assemblies with Phillips head threaded barrels 

(Fig.16C)

 

and barrel-bolts 

(Fig.16D)

.

I. 

Place a plastic washer 

(Fig.16E)

 on both sides of 

the primary bow

between the bow assembly and 

H-bracket

.

II. 

Insert the barrels and barrel-bolts through the 

H-brackets and primary bows.
