Hi all:
I've never owned/operated a bimini top before, but I just noticed an ad for one for sale in my area. It's never been used and the price is right. It was designed for a bowrider-type boat, but the boat I want to put it on is a simple aluminum skiff.
The top is 85" wide and my boat is 76". Is it sensible/possible to bend the frame a bit, or cut it to fit? I'm thinking that 4.5" overhang on either side might not be a problem, but it would be better to cut it if possible.
