Zodiac Bay-Runner 500 pro 70hp 2013 Accessories needed

Having a difficult time locating accessories:

1. Rollbar for Bayrunner 500

2. The Best looking and Highest Quality Bimini Top that I can install myself, the dealer in Atlanta wants 1125.00 installed with a boot. I am just not sure the best way to mount it.

3. Sundeck or a DIY sundeck

4.LED Light kit for Rollbar, inside and underneath boat.

5. Additional Waterproof storage, such as bags or coolers designed just to fit that model.

6. Easy to use Swim Ladder

7. Simple safe way to tow a tubber or wakeboarder.

I am not opposed to buying quality used products of course. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Happy Boating!

1. Rollbar for Bayrunner 500
To mount stuff, or tow with?

3 bow bimini with stainless tubing...if you have a Bayrunner, you can mount the hinges to the grab-bars that stick out over the tube.

3. Sundeck or a DIY sundeck
You'll need to go custom for this. Only the more premium boats have them as a factory option.

4.LED Light kit for Rollbar, inside and underneath boat.
Rigid LED lighting for spot lamps, courtesy lights can be inexpensive ones from Attwood.

5. Additional Waterproof storage, such as bags or coolers designed just to fit that model.
There isn't too much to choose from here. You can usually purchase dry bags from dive shops.

6. Easy to use Swim Ladder
St Croix has a nice stainless ladder.

7. Simple safe way to tow a tubber or wakeboarder.
Turboswing

Richard,

Thanks so much for the kind reply to my questions.



[QUOTE=office888;717848]1. Rollbar for Bayrunner 500
To mount stuff, or tow with?

I think they look cool but, I was wondering if there was anything out there that could do both and if not, I will have to go with the turbo swing. I have not been able to find to many options available and for sale. I have seen a couple of pictures but they looked like mounting only.


As far as the Bimini, have you seen any that roll straight off the rollbar for a rib? I have seen these on other types of boats and they are much sportier than the 3 bow. I am sure there is some custom shops doing that work but I have not located that yet.


Again Many thanks and Happy Boating!
