Hard Top Cost $$$ -
ArrrrrGHH !!
Anybody have a ball park of having a hardtop made without the isinglass ( for now ) for a 23' Tsunami ? Eventually I will put on the glass, just not yet $$$. I have a few favorite hardtop designs on the site... Every time I say, " its too expensive " and am ready to go the soft top option, I look at boat porn and see the hardtop pix and ... well, I then re-focus on a hardtop. And even if this is in my price range, who makes 'em really well locally to Long Island ( or, I guess CT, NJ, NY ) Anyone want to attach a picture of your hardtop - it would be greatly appreciated !

Hardtop ideas
Here's a picture of the one on my 1979 Sceptre. I might also consider selling it as I keep going back and forth between keeping it an express and making it a Savage type layout.
If you have any questions let me know. Steve

Talk to Bob over at Raybo in Lindenhurst. He will give you an idea of the high-end cost. Then see if you can price it down from there.

What about fabricating a hardtop on to the aluminum piping using a fiberglass skin or starboard type material? If I keep the frame that's what I'm contemplating.

The biggest shortage I'm finding lately is time...
I think building the actual top wouldn't be that hard - after a design is figured out. It's the aluminum tube that a pro is needed. Is the sequence - hardtop first then the aluminum ? Anyone have a hardtop built recently that has experience with the cost of it ?
