HUNTER 33' CHERUBINI SANDUSKY
I bought a 1981 33' Hunter. I would like to add a bimini. Was wondering the "formula" for width and height. Are off the shelf biminis just as good as custom ones for the difference in price? If so how do I measure for it?

The ones that they sell on THIS site are very good quality.

If you have any questions call them and ask your questions. We have one of our fellow sailors with one installed on a H'30 Cherubini. Looks like a custom unit.

I had a local canvas shop custom make and install my bimini so it has no clearance issues, no straps to deal with, and in stainless for $50 more than the aluminum frame DIY installation bimini would have cost from the online place.

Get one as wide as you can, and as low as you can fit under.

I purchased one direct from this site and am very happy with it. Well made and a good price. The manufacturer for SBO was very helpful. Requires that you install yourself, so if you're not comfortable with that, call a local canvass shop, They'll likely visit and make sure it fits and covers the way you want.

Anyone look at this stuff: hardtop.com
They quoted an 8 x 10 section at about 1300 with a ten year warranty. Free shipping.
