Local classified listing reads: Used 1 time Bimini Top. 61" X 67"W X 72"L. $100. Will this fit my boat? My boat: 1985 Bayliner bowrider 16' with o/b, How do I measure for this? I think I saw a "fitment" guide in the Overton's catalog but can't find it. I know the 67" is the W, & 72" is length, is the 61" height? Where do I measure W & L from on the boat. Does it seem worth $100 if it really is new?

Look at a factory top for your boat and check the measurements that way.

That Bimini will sit 5'1" above wherever you decide to mount it. That is really up there. You can't really shorten them too much as it will change the geometry of the frame and cause the top to be tight in the middle well before the sides are.
