The lower the height the more shade. Many want to be able to stand up under one but I chose not to do that. I got the 54 inch.

I got the Sunbrella material for my bimini as I use it a a lot for sun and rain and wanted something to last. In my opinion there is not anything that will outlast the sunbrella material. Granted it is heavier than any other in case you are wondering about the weight.

I got mine for rain more than shade actually. Given that, I found it more functional to be able to walk back and forth while standing. My buddy and I spent a very productive cold rainy morning huddled under the top and pulling fish in.

For the height measurement, I sat in my spider rigging chair and had the wife measure to the top of my head and add 12 inches. Coincidently, I can stand mid boat by the console without ducking down.

I bought the 8' long model and the sliding mount for the gunwales. When we spider rig, we slide the cover all the way forward, when we are pulling cranks from the back, we slide it all the way back.

Measure three times, drill once!
