...of the biminis.

Does anyone know the difference in bimini size between the Limited S E-series and non-towered Limited E-series? They appear to be comparable and much bigger than the bimini on the Limited S (non E-series).
 
The E-series Bimini is huge. Much larger than any other 240 model.
 
I can tell you it's a good 1/3 bigger than the standard non tower bimini. Coming from a limited, it's significantly larger, but that's not a bad thing, it's well positioned. I'm 6'2" and can walk cleanly around the entire boat without smashing my skull. Whereas the limited I was always ducking it.

I haven't done it it, but I also like the idea that you could strap a big tube up there if you wanted to. That frame is really sturdy.
