Patrick,
    I got a bimini for BayBird about four summers ago at a Boater's World near my home.   It's a 3-bow aluminum frame with a white vinyl top.  At about $300 it was way cheaper than SS and Sunbrella; not quite as "shippy" but it's blessed shade for the Ches Bay summers.  I got the 84" width; height (I think) was 42."  I mounted it on the side deck just over the coaming in the vicinity of the winches.  This position clears the boom, the backstay, and the end-boom mainsheet, and it give me "nearly" standing head room — I (6') just have to duck my head a little.
    Hope this helps.

Fair winds,
