So it has been 6 weeks.
I still love having a T-Top.
The scar on my forehead from stepping down into the boat is healing. Some might argue altered mental status, though.
Besides the shade, VHF mount and GPS mount, the best thing is the elevated mount for all around light means that it never blinds you when night fishing. That is a HUGE plus, especially when navigating places like the Westport river inlet at night. It can mean the difference between seeing rocks or not. Let alone the help in fishing.
Of note: I have noticed that the lever arm of the T-Top makes the bow light at speed. Which can make for a slightly harder ride if I don't keep a full tank forward of the console and keep a watchful eye on trim. Even with a rider forward, and anchor chain and 300 ft of 1/2 anchor line. It is subtle, but there. I also think a 75 hp is out of the question with a T-Top, whereas I think it would be ok for one without.
