Doug,

32 inch height will be enough to get to your boom while mounting somewhere between 4 inches down the side of the lower 26D coamings. I think my boom height is standard as I just had my bolt rope lengthened.

The extra width I bought is good if you really want a lot of shade, but a small compromise on visibility to the side when heeling. Width is good to avoid 26d stailess side rails which is tight on the narrower size.

Good luck, will still try a picture but don't hold your breath as I am not home in the daylight much.

-Eric
