Hello Rob,
To get the right size you will just need to measure across the opening area of your boat to get the right size support bow for the cover. You can use as many as you like for support, and the support bow can be cut to size, installing using the Taylor Made Support Bow Sockets for Boat Covers # 369935.
The only size we have is the 6 foot long Taylor Made Support Bow for Boat Covers # 369924.
