I have a 1996 Hurricane Deck boat.
I need a new bimini top and all the search engines show it is an 8'x8' top.
My problem is I measure the frame and it is 84"x108"
No one makes a top this size that I can find.
Any one know the actual measurements for an 8x8 bimini top?
It is the original fram as it is attatched to the hand rail.
I am lost.

Is the frame still good?
Any local canvas shop can make you a new one.

I did find a 8 ft long but 96 wide for my boat.I think the 8 ft length is the longest they sell unless you get into pontoon biminis.

Call Hurricane and ask them, I am sure they can point you in the right direction, they might even just have what you are looking for.

The Frame is good. It is attatched to the handrail with stainless rivets so I am assuming it came from the factory like that. The cover boot has Hurricane stitched on it also so I figure it had to come like that.
Even hurricane says it is an 8x8 but that is not what the frame measures.

It is 7x9. I know that 8 wide would work because it will just come down further on the side but that length difference has me thrown off.
