New Bimini Top Boot

[billboardbob]

Can anybody tell me how wide the bimini top is for a 260 BR??? I need to order a new boot... My choices are 8' wide and 8.5 wide? I'd measure it myself but the boat is in Florida and I'm in South Carolina... Thanks

I bought mine from Ameritex. They made the orignal for Formula. I called them, told Cheryl what i needed and that was it.

Here is a thread from a couple years ago. The link to ameritex is in here as well.

Are the boots functional or just a look? I bought them for my tops but have never used them once. I just wrap the straps around them and off I go. Just wondering why they are actually used.

I use it for the clean look during the rare times I don't have the Bimini up...
