What size T Top for 1801CC?

[Scottp3]

Bought my first boat last month - a used 2006 Parker 1801 CC. I am having a hard T Top installed - and having trouble figuring out what size to install. Options are 4x6 or 5x7, approximately.

I thought the 5x7 would be best, but when I saw a 5x7 on a 23' boat in the yard it made me (and the Marine Fabricator guy) think that it would be too big for my boat. We think it could handle the 5 foot width, but it was that 7 foot length that made it look too big.

So, can anyone tell me what they have on their 1801 and how they feel about the functionality AND look of the top? This boat has such classic lines and I don't want the T-Top to detract from that.

Really appreciate any feedback, and thank you in advance.

I think FishFactory's pic says it all. Looks awesome on his boat.

I was thinking about a T-Top on my 1801 but I figured that walking between the gunnel and the T-Top tubes would make for a tight fit.
So I opted for a bimini instead..........

Really enjoy my T-Top and wouldn't have it any other way!!!
