Height measurement for bimini in I-30

[nestorph]

I'm looking to install a bimini on my I-30 Bahama that I just purchased. It's still on the hard and the mast is down. I need to measure the height from the stern coaming top to the bottom of the boom so that I can calculate the height of the frame I'll need. Unfortunately, the boat is 200 miles from where I live so I can't pop up to do the measurement myself for awhile. Any takers? Thanks

I have a Islander 32 mk11 that I can measure for you. I have a dodger and bimini also. The dodger is low in front of companion way and it rises toward the stern of the boat for more head room.
I can send you pictures of the set-up if you can give me your e-mail address. The pictures of Southern Lady is way I brought her a year ago. If this is similar of what you are looking for. I will be glad to down to boat to get measurement.

Sure!

I would venture a guess that those dimensions are probably pretty similar between the two models. I'd appreciate your help. Thanks

i am trying to find wiring diagram of my boat, do you know where or who might have copy of wiring diagram of this years of Islander. Most of the wiring is still same when it was build.

I saw the pics. Those measurements should be fine. I see that your bimini is attached to the rails rather than coaming. I assume the "back of stern" measurement should be the same.
