Most are built custom. You might also have to modify the t top to make it where it will bolt on right but not a issue just additional cost. I am worried about weight big time on my 25' seafari and want a hard top. I am building mine out of biaxial carbon fiber with corecell or similar foam as a core. I figured that I can do one at about a 1/3 of a standard fiberglass wood core type. Carbon cost a lot but you can find it on close outs online for cheaper than some s-glass. With the way the deep vee on the 25' is weight is a serious issue but your boat should handle it better.
