My head is about to explode trying to research this. I believe I want stainless hardwear and sunbrella fabric. I'm 5'10 tall. Will the standard 72x 54x 61-66 measurements work? If not what? Good supliers? Hardwear placement? Thanks in advance for any info.

Robert -

I am 6'2 and gave up using my standard Mills bimini. Too short. Sold it to Pete in Michigan.

The Outrage 17 I is best when the bimini has aluminum tracks that allow the bows to slide. This allows the bimini to be stowed forward and rest inside the rails.

See my personal page for photos.

I would add 5" to the height if I ever did it again. Check with Carver and Mills Canvas to see if they can do custom height.
