Update in installation of Fish Masters T-Top.
Received the two boxes of parts to make the T-Top. The quality of this product is unbelievable. Excellent welds and highly polished. You receive every part needed for a complete intallation including 5200 Fast Cure. We assembled the T-Top per the instructions and lifted it onto the boat from the bow. Looked awsome. Had friends stabilize it in an area that might work for installation. I removed the bolts that held the pivot hindges together and proceeded to bend it forward.
All look good until --wow the 4' wide top hit the railing. It would not go any lower than the railing. CRAP...
We analized it over and over. But could not come up with a way to have it clear the railings when lowered.
Back in the boxes it went. I am returning it this week. A financial loss due to shipping costs but I am glad that I tried.
Because if it worked it would have been perfect. Appearance, functionality and quality were excellent.
You just need a longer boat for the folding T-Top to work.
I would recommend Fish Masters to anyone wanting a T-Top. Just have a bigger boat than a 15'.
