I had one custom made. The off-the-shelf models were too small. Yeah, it cost more, but worth it I think, especially in the summer sun on the Chesapeake Bay.

I cam in late on this discussion. However, what is the height of most of the bimini's that are produced? West Marine has them at 44" and 56" or there about.

Well, as in most sailing and boat ownership issues, one question or problem leads to another ...

Raising the boom was going to be my first solution. The gooseneck fitting is completely frozen ... ain't going nowhere short of drilling out the screws and retapping. Unless, of course, someone has a bright idea on that subject.

Tom. I would have had the same problem you are having, so I raised my boom by about eight inches before having a bimini installed this summer. I still have several inches to spare at the top of the mainsail track. The bimini stands a tad over six feet from the cockpit deck, so I have plenty of headroom and no contact between bimini and boom.

As long as we're on the subject, I have a bimini mounted about like the one below, but it's too high by sveral inches. Boom hits it so I can't use it sailing closer than a reach. How do you shorten the things. Can I just cut a couple inches off the aluminum tube?

Well, here is another picture.  Ninth Daughter (no he didn't own 8 other boats named daughter...he and his wife had 8 daughters!) has a split backstay and end boom travelor.  I haven't sailed on ninth daughter with the bimini open so as far as going forward I do not know the ease/difficulty of that.  Also, Bob Deurer's web site has information about modifications he made to Esacape's bimini: Cockpit-1


BTW: I think 9th daughter has a nice concept for dealing with the ob and there is a small solar panel on the top of the pole which is attached to the aft railing.  A nicely equipped boat.
