Custom hardtops
Submitted by wez0062 on Tue, 2016-04-26 13:40
Hi,
would anyone have any info about having a fibreglass or Aluminium hardtop built to suit my 22ft Fibreglass boat.
Any info, advise or even a guesstimate of pricing would be greatly appreciated

prob not too much help but.
Matt from Genesis (Armadale) will make up custom ali hardtops. got a quote (a while back) for my 6.1m for 4.5-5k depending on what I wanted. don't know how or if this would suit a fibreglass boat though.
Edit: didn't I see your boat for sale ?

Must be a pretty flash hardtop for 4.5-5k. Was that including Windows?

Was thinking the same BJ, reckon I could come up with something a fair bit cheaper than that depending on design.

hard top
hi mate,
would love to see what you could do. I am just chasing a plain hard top to suit my 22ft Commodore. Nothing fancy, but would like it about 400mm past the top of my windscreen to keep the sun off the driver when standing up, and just to add some nav lights & a running light

help with hard top
Hi mate,
I am guessing it would be made of aluminium ??
probably the hardest part is being able to have a set up where the hardtop could drop down to windscreen height somehow, then I can still get the boat into my garage. would that be a problem ??

Hi wez Have a look at the
Hi wez
Have a look at the bar crusher fold down hard top.
I am planning to fabricate something similar to achieve a lower towing/storage height. I am just also planning to beef it out a fair bit in order to use it for wakeboarding.
The hardtop would not be walkable, but should be suitably strong enough.

Hardtop
My hardtop is 2.5m and on a 21.5ft boat to give you an idea of the amount of coverage. Strangely enough I bought mine off gumtree from the closeout of the old commodore boats warehouse!
The boat will be for sale soon, you could buy the hardtop and get a free boat! ha ha
