I still want a top...yakkity yak

I've been talking about a radar arch since time began, at least for this site.  I've always balked at hardtops for a V-20 because I thought they were a little restrictive.  I've found the top that I want, at least this week.  Check this out...

Gives me a place to mount the radome and I can still fish around it relatively easy.  All things considered it even reasonably priced, sort of.

Air, I'm not a big fan of hard tops on a V-20, but that one I like!! ;) 8) ...because it looks lighter-weight than most tops...go for it ;) 8) ...once ya get the top done, how long's it gonna be til ya want "Glass" curtains?...ya might wanna keep that in mind when you're talkin' w/ the top-maker...
 
TIn, I've got that pic saved away already. It was the forerunner last week. It is a little more restricitve in the front with the forward supports. Lots of times I've got two in the stern while I fish standing in the cuddy so I can run the boat when needed. Works great for fishing around structure.

i thought i was gonna buy a v with a top on it. supposed to be a real nice boat too. still hoping to get her but, that glimmer of hope grows dimmer with every passing day.
so about how much does a top go for these days?
 
Sorry to dredge this back up. Anybody got any more top info. I'm hoping to talk to a fabricator monday...

Which fabricator are you going to use, I know of one in Mears that does really good looking work, and one of them broke off and went on his own down in Onley.

All those tops look nice, but I am more inclined to go with a Tee top.

I just remembered you have a cuddy, forget the Tee.

Turbo, I am going to talk to Standard, but looking at other options to keep em honest... ;) Who's in Onley?

Thanks,

Man, its a good thing I like you cause I had to get dressed and go out to my truck and get his card.

Eastern Marine Fabrications. He used to work at standard then started his own bussiness. My wife has been teaching with his father for several years now.

Hope this helps.
 
lemme tell ya, a hardtop is where its at. gives more coverage than a bimini and you dont hafta replace it. yeah, gets in the way if yer fishin a few guys but i love it.
 
C_T_T; if you just copy and paste the IMG image tag, it'll put the pic in your post instead of the link. The link works too. But it's just easier to do the IMG tag.
