Took it on it's maiden run today for 1 KG and 1 Squid. The more I fish where the fish aren't, the closer I will be to where the fish are! Hartop performed really well.
I'm not sure who made it. I bought the frame and the top off Gumtree new and never fitted to a boat. The guy selling them was clearing out a wharehouse he bought that was from the liquidation sale of commodore boats from what I was told. I had the frame modified to fit my boat by Brad at West Coast Marine Fabrication in Malaga.
It needs another bar across to follow the curve of the windscreen if I was to fit clears. It was on the list to be done but he ran out of time. I don't fish much bad weather so spray hasn't really been an issue. I mainly try to head south west in the morning and come back with the seabreeze in the arvo if possible. Any more than 15-20kn and you won't see me on the water .
The lawn is only new so it has been given all the water it needed to get established. See how it goes now that it is back to 2 days a week watering.

Who made the actual hardtop? Suits perfectly.
I did then the best that I knew how. When I knew better, I did better.
