Air, i want a top that snaps to the windshield i guess this is what you call a "low rider". Im not crazy over the clear plastic as it looks like its hard to keep free of scratches. Also I like having the top lower because of less wind resistance and better sun protection. I think I'm going to give him the go ahead on Monday after I make sure I like the way the old top fits, I never actually had it on the boat it came with it.

$375 for a flat piece of cloth sewed at one end for the frame, and a bunch of snaps at the other end??

Must be my ***ish side, but I think thats a bit high??

MJ, I agree. He is putting in a zippered flap above the center of the windshield and snaps where the top will secure to the frame. The funny thing is I asked a well respected shop in NJ before the winter and they told me $600.

Well with the flap and stuff I guess it ok, I missed that some were when I read this.
I thought you were just going from the windshield back, nothing extra.

Just go for it!! Its only money, you get payed again next week ;)

I got mine done by a local Pa. Dutch guy,
and it worked out well.

I had to move some of the snaps and there are some areas
that could use some stitches to tighten it up.

He did use my old canvas as a template.

He charged me $366 but it included the side panels
and the rear rain cover.

Parish that sounds like a great deal. Is he still in business?

As far as I know he is.
I haven't been up that way in a while.
I could check if your interested.

An hour and 1/2 ride from center city Philly.

I fly out of PHL sometimes and early in the morning, no traffic, I can make it there in 1 hour.
