    Mine goes inside the engine compartment. Like Hunter stated in a previous post. Under the deck lid there is a "shelf" or ridge just forward of the transom. The top in its cover faces the transom. The support tubes face toward the bow. Would yours fit that way?

    What style cover do you have? Full cover that wraps all the way to the midline of the boat or does it button on at the edges of the cockpit and top of windshield?

    Debadged EcoBoost or 5.0? Looking to buy here in the next couple months. My 99 5.4 is getting tired of pulling my 5500lb(estimated) Shabah 250. Especially at the elevation we are at. Diesel would be great but $30K for a 10 year old used truck is outrageous.

    5.0 , I think an Eco or diesel would be best for your setup. Agreed on the cost of diesels, crazy, but if u get a well taken care of one, worth it.

    I think some of you are talking about a bimini and others may be referring to the small short cockpit cover that attaches to the windshield and then goes up and over. My 180 Diablo has the former although I would like a taller bimini I could stand under. I see no way a taller bimini would fit in the aft space around the motor unless all the poles collapsed. I have never decided on one but would be curious if there is a good solution that would also stow.
