There are a number of Bimini Top Finders on-line, designed to recommend a bimini top based on the make, model and year of your boat. They provide a good way to narrow down the options, but the best way to be sure of a good fit is to take your actual measurements..
Figure out where you plan to mount your bimini top. Remember that the mounting point will be in the center of your top, so if you have an 6' long top, you'll have 3' of cover forwards and 3' backwards from your mounting point. Mark that spot with a piece of masking tape.
Width is the most critical factor on getting the right size. Measure in a straight line between the two mounting points you marked. Bimini tops are adjustable in width so you'll want to select one with a width adjustment that will accommodate your measurements.
To get the correct height, measure up from your mounting point in a straight line. The total clearance of you top will be the height from the deck to your mounting point and from the mounting point to the height of your selected top. For example, if you mounted your 46" Bimini top on the gunwale where it is 24" above the deck, the total height would be 70" or 5'8" above the deck. Make sure this will give you ample head room to move about under your cover.
With a good idea of the Width, Height and Length you'll need, you be quickly able to select the Bimini Top that is correct for your boat.
