I mean, it IS nine years old and I'm just trying to nurse it along another couple years, hence the Thompsons. The plan is to replace the existing bimini with a rigid structure upon which I will build a hard top by laminating thin ply which will accommodate simple curves. I'll coat that with epoxy and paint it.
The dodger is newer so it's okay for now. Eventually I'd like to build a hard dodger. I'm thinking about using foam so I can create a less boxy structure then glass over that.
