Bimini tops are usually universal, and are based upon the width of the poles, and the length of the top. If you can post those specs, that'll probably help with the sale!

Chris,

Another problem with the Convertible tops (Convertible tops connect to the windshield, Bimini Tops "float" above the cockpit) is the 2002+ (SeaFox) Convertible tops (we pattern all new canvas for the Mariahs when SeaFox took over in 2002, but the hulls were the same) may not line up perfectly to the shape of the older windshields. We have been in touch with Taylor and SeaFox to try and understand what windshield were used pre- and post 2002 ...

We have a customer who plans to send us his old 2001 Shabah Convertible Top canvas at season end in November to compare, so we may be able to adjust the 2002+ design to produce OEM replacement canvas for pre-2002 Mariahs after that.

For reference, these were the original (enlarged here) Mariah web-site option photos of:
