You\u2019ll find that most pontoons will measure about 89\u201d-93\u201d, but don\u2019t forget to include that 1\u201d extra inch for allowing the foam to slightly hang over the bases.<\/p>\n<p>Then, measure \u201cB\u201d according to the diagram, which is the distance between the side gate and rear rail.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, are your corners (\u201cD)\u201d, round or square?<\/p>\n<p>With both of these measurements, you will know exactly how much room you have to work with.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you\u2019re replacing the front group:<\/em><\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll measure the distance between the side gate and front rail to get measurement \u201cC\u201d.

This way, your pontoon has a whole new, eye-catching look and you won\u2019t have to worry yourself with replacing different pieces of your furniture every year.
