Convertable top ?? Were to find

[smokeonthewater]

the frame pictured and the top are nothin... cheap run of the mill bimini... Pick up a used upholstery machine and learn to sew... make your own curtains and sell the machine when done... OR make several and sell em..... You MIGHT even get the misses on board.

Good answer , I have been making camo. ground blinds for hunting ,using old tent poles for a while now , I dont think my singer mach. is heavy enough for marine matl. thou. but you are on to something . Us good old yankees can make a silk purse out of a pig's ear ferr shure . Might be a way to go ? if not guess I will get wet and cold LOL

Here are a few shots of mine--it was a ground up build on the top and back canvas--top of the line materials--especially the windows so they would last--and I will tell you Butt hurt was this-$$$$$-but awesome work and this was done when the economy was still rocking in 08. Still working great for me. Go to your local marine upholstry shop and make sure they have good reference's and their tops last--there is alot to the double stiching and the materials they use--little things make a huge difference in longevity--and this is a investment.

Thanks!!

It works out awesome--each year I do a bit more modifing to fit our fishing. I have a live bait tank for tuna.

I run out with the big boys as fast or faster most of the time--boat rides great with it loaded for tuna too with all the ice on board.

I do most of my fishing off shore--salmon is usually close in (within 20 miles) but Halibut, Ling and Tuna are 35 to 60 miles out.

Best part is it is easy to haul.

Thanks agian--and the top is worth every penny!!

Have 10 rod holders up top now. Use the outer 2 spun out as outer troll poles for tuna. Also have 4 in the hull and 6 agianst the transom and can add a pole in a holder to the gut board. Waiting for the radar still--spent that money on the hyd steering and the arch. Put a GPS chart plotter in dash as well.

It works very well for sure.
