Do any of you 16'SS owner have a Bimini Top? I need to buy one and would like to know what length and height would be the best?
Thanks Glen

I've been wondering the same thing. I found this one that might be a good size.

[unhelpful post] I just bought one for my 18' from here http://stores.ebay.com/safeguardcovers I won't install it till the Spring though. Seems nice and the price sure was right. I think iboats is having their crazy sale here in a week but you gotta be fast. [/unhelpful post]

Thanks Guys, I know we are supposed to support the Iboats store but their frieght duty and brockerage to Canada kills us. I did find a great deal from a Canadian supplier/maker called Covertex that sells the same make as Iboats, with Sunbrealla material for $60.00 less Canadian and they only charge a flat rate shipping of $24.00. And they do sell a lot of product to US customers.

Dozer....on your original Q: i like the idea of standing head clearance and lots of coverage (ie, i'd go with tallest possible and either 6 or 8' long), but i fish in Mexico rather than Canada....you may WANT a little sun, and i suspect a lower bimini would have less effect in a wind
