Hey Gilli -
That top is an Atlantic Towers. If you go on their web site it is the commercial duty fiberglass top. The top that i have is a few years old, so the current model is a little different. I was lucky to find my top when i was restoring the boat, a guy had bought it for a project like 7-8 years ago and never opened the box.
It's a very sturdy structure. Not sturdy enough to put a crows nest up there. I had to get some support welded in under the top for the radar dome.
Basically - the left and right side lefts are welded. You bolt them to the floor and run some stanchions to the console. Then, there is an all welded aluminum box frame that gets bolted to the top of the legs. Then finally, you set the glass top down on that frame and it gets bolted to it.
I wouldn't say it's quite as durable as a custom top, but what i paid for it i couldn't do any better.
