Re: Bimini top

I have a 19 foot and I went with a three bow 6 foot bimi. Perfect for what I wanted. Depends on what coverage you want. If you want to shade all the way to the back seats you might want a 4 bow 8 foot bimi.

Re: Bimini top

Go out to the boat and figure out where you want to mount the brackets. Mine are mounted just inside the side glass. Then measure that distance and buy the appropriate bimini. this pic kind of shows where my mounting points are attached to the hull.

Good Luck!

Re: Bimini top

Mine has a slotted rail inside of the gunnels so there is a degree of fore and aft movement to help compensate for sun angle and were folks want to sit. My 6' long 3 bow seems to work well with my 18 footer. the longer the top the more it reduces speed and increases fuel.
