Looking for a hard top

[1224bret]

I'm looking for a hard top for my v does anyone know where to find one or are most of them custom built? What price range do they run normally? Been looking at several boats on here with them and would love to have one... Thanks

All are custom. The price will make you cry.

unless you can build your own..... then you may just whimper a little instead of crying


a couple tidbits.....

Avoid scams, deal locally (http://www.craigslist.org/about/scams) Beware wiring (e.g. Western Union), cashier checks, money orders, shipping.

If that was a cuddy I would have to seriously consider it. The keys are only about 4hrs away. I kind of figured that they were mostly custom made. Just didn't know what to expect on price. I guess I need to keep searching craigslist and find one. I don't think I could make one that would look like the ones I've seen I don't have a way of bending pipe or welding stainless. Though I'm scared to ask what do people pay to have them made?

[smokeonthewater]

$3-10k For the most part that's done by people who buy em new.... us poor bastards either buy the boat with the top already on it or find a smokin deal on craigslist on one being parted out

as far as having it made, it would be cheaper to go buy a boat that already has a hard top

[SkunkBoat]

mine was $3200 new, custom, 10 years ago. Love it. would spend the money again. Just developed a crack this season that I need to get fixed.

[capt chuck]

Too bad you are not in NJ. I had my top made by Charlie from C&C Welding in Cape May Courthouse. Absolutely bullet proof. Top notch quality. $3000.00

[step up here]

Hey Capt Chuck can you show us a few pictures of the top. I just had a radar arch for my V-31 done by Charlie and am more then satisfied.

[capt chuck]

Marine Connection in West Palm Beach Fl. may have a hardtop. They carry all sorts of surplus from boat builders and manufacturers.
