Thanks for the comments and the pictures you linked to. I hadn't thought about laying it forward and, after looking at the boat that does make sense. I don't have a bow rail on my Whaler so I wouldn't have to be concerned about whether or not it fit inside the rail.

I do think I'll order it with a 48" slide to make sure there's enough movement for it to reach the bow.

Now, how about another question. We have the Sport Bucket seats in the boat so we sit pretty high. I want a top that I can move around under but not necessarily to stand up under.

Any thoughts on the height I should consider?
