Although a little tacky it seems to work quite well. We saw this on another boaters 23' cruiser and asked if it was custom or a universal item. The wife says custom from Big Lots gardening section for $25. I found one on Amazon for $29.95. They are a white bug mesh meant to fit over a 9' round umbrella with a zipper opening. Just toss it over the forward bimini and figure out ways to secure it depending on your boat.

I bought it mostly for August and September when the biting flies drive you crazy even during the day. The elaborate no-see-um size mesh that I made to go around the entire boat is a pain to set up and is so fine it doesn't let any air through.
