bimini top

Ended up getting one from these guys.

I'm sure there are a few differences in a '75 hull and an '89.
I ended up with a 6' top, that would work on a 79-84" width and had a height of 48-54". Ended up cutting off 6" to make me happy with head room and fitting to the area I wanted.
I made it to fold forward or rear with hard adjustable pole supports and it not fastened to the windshield.

Sorry, I don't even have any good pictures of the setup.

Our boat had a 6 footer and I think it was original when we purchased it. I order an 8 footer from GMI. The quality of the product was pretty good but the fit of the top is lousy. The middle 2 bows would not raise high enough to make a tight fit. I had to remove the bows from the sewn in pockets to get the bows high enough to make it taut/tight. I had to add additonal straps to support the center of the bimini. I recently add front and side isinglass panels.


I think a 6 footer would be a good fit. Our 8 footer works for us but we don't fish.

I just bought a new top about 3 weeks ago from boatarama

Have not installed it yet, but set it up in my basement to check quality, fit, etc. Gotta say I love it... 4 bows, not 3, 1" double walled tubing, not the normal 7/8", boot included in price, great price, 7 year guarentee, and for an extra $20 bucks they threw in a matching set of solid support poles with all hardware.
