Seafari Navy Top

[McGillicuddy]

Not sure where to post this...
Thinking about making or buying a Navy/convertible top for my Seafari 20. Any one have one for sale or an old one stashed away I could use as a pattern?

Thanks.
Cheers,
Gillie

Gillie,

I assume you want a Navy top instead of a Bimini to keep that cold Pacific water off of you?! My original Navy top worked well but it's long gone. Shouldn't be to hard to have one made. I'd suggest having a zippered hatch above the helm as shown in pic below because you won't be able to stand up at the helm otherwise! Do you have the attachment hardware on the side of the coaming? If not I can send you measurements of where to locate it. If you locate it right, it will fold down in front of the windshield. The vinyl hold-down straps on side of cabin can be made from material they use for lawn chair webbing.

I replaced my Navy top with a Bimini which is cooler in Fl. than the Navy top. It has a clear section that zips to the top and attaches to top of windshield and attaches to the side curtains with velcro.
