1. Is it possible for me to mount a stock bimini on my hunter 25. for instance from Boat US. I belive if I mount on the coaming (with stock bimini of approximate dimensions to fit under the boom and between main sheet and backstay) I will have enough head room in the cock pit. 2. the foot of my main sail is not the total length of the boom. would my boat sail faster if it was? it is about eight inches short.
