guesstimate on t top

[shrimpman steve]

Well as most of you know I bought a 19 foot center console. I have a bimini, but would love a ttop. for you guys that have had them installed how expensive are they? I attached a pic of my exact boat with a ttop. any guesses as to how much it would cost. I dont know if it's $1,000 or $5,000. any ideas how much a small ttop should run me?

Give Atlantic Towers in Bayville NJ a call. I had one installed on my last boat and have nothing but good things to say about there company. They don't do installs themselves but they have a guy who does them on weekends for them.

Just curious about this? When you have a T-top installed should you take the additional weight under consideration when figuering out the gross weight your boat can carry? Say, if your boat can carry 900lbs and the t-top weighs 150, are you then limited to trying to stay with a load under 750lbs?

Yep and it's for this reason a lot of smaller boats with limited weight capacity get soft t tops instead or hard ones.
