Angry This SUCKS

Just thought I would share my story

I have seen several posts about putting a hard top on your boat, I think I even chimed in on a few. Found a top on Craig's list, hauled *** to buy it ,made a few modification ,new top 500 bucks in it, That's what IM talking n about.

Ok you know the old saying ,when its to good to be true it usually is.
Yep better believe it. Noticed a crack on the weld at the foot of the top ,no worries have a buddy that can hook me up, fixed, no worries. Year goes by crack again same weld, need a better welder. Went to a custom top fabricator (someone I know) the top is built all wrong, after a close inspection a lot of welds have cracked ,due to a poor design and too small of piping was used not enough supports etc.

Having a custom top built now 3200.00 ,that's what a real top costs.
Morale to the story DONT BE A CHEAP *** it will cost you more in the long run.

Just thought I would pass this along next time you see a top on Craig's list make sure you know what to look for in a hard top .Hopefully this wont happen to anyone else.
