It is indeed Lake Erie...That pick is at the very head of Lake Erie in an area that doesn't have much fetch to build a big chop. Another half a mile out though, I'm in Lake Erie proper, and then it's wave city!

Unfortunately my search for a photo of the "Wolfgang Edition" has come up dry. I will be cheching on the boat later today, and can take some photos of it's assembly. Since the boat is on the hard, I can't set it up to show how it works. I will say it is not as roomy as a real bimini. With the pop top up the froeward part of the bimini just slightly overlaps the sliding hatch. Makes it ideal for a rain cover at the dock or anchor. I'll be back. Barry

Since I started this thread, I have to finish it. I was aboard my boat yesterday eyeballing the location and implications of the genoa track vs. combings locations. Based on how we use our C25, I'm going with the narrower approach. A standard 36" H x 61-66" bimini fits the bill nicely and at the low end of the price range to boot.

Thanks everyone for sharing their experience and opinions.
