Default Re: arch for23 scepter

tri5,Thanks'
I don't have any specs or measurements,but Atlantic Towers has them on file for your boat.
I had the top made from Seamark Sunbrella which is sunbrella fabric with a vinyl coating on the inside.It is totally waterproof.
I never take it down,it remains up all season.It's nice to keep the sun out on those scorching summer days and with the rear drop door curtain down it's warm in the early spring.
We strictly troll so the top is never an issue when fishing.All our fish are brought in to the stern.

Atlantic Towers had the measurements on file for the old Seacraft Sceptre/Tsunami's so they could build it from their measurements.
This was a custom built arch,made to fit the older Seacrafts.They also make a universal fitall arch for much less money but I didn't care for the build of it.

The tubing on it is 1.90 OD.and the welds are very nice.
I had a very good experience with Atlantic,although I've heard from others that didn't.
They delivered it to my home in Western Ma for 100.00 bucks,
and the last I knew,they delivered all the way to Maine along the rte 95 & 91 corridor.

When I went shopping for arches,I was blown away by the cost of them from many custom builders.Prices of three to four grand were not uncommon.
I will say however,that those prices were for the arch with installation and rigged with wiring and/or pull cords for the wiring,and are built specifically for your boat,so naturally they are more money.
I couldn't afford that kind of money so I found the Atlantic product to be of very nice quality at a lower cost.

Here's a couple of closeup pics of the mounting system of the arch.
