The pod gives you a more “custom look” which is what these are all about. Clean is the guiding principle. On this no fasters are visible. Embedded aluminum plate to drill and tap.
With the position of the satellite antenna you really don’t need it at all!

Re: Hardtop build
First hardtop looks very nice. Man that second one must be for a big boat! Pretty neat how you have things cut for line up.

Re: Hardtop build
I bought a 6' high tower for my radar. Thing is gonna be about 17' above sea level. A little worried it'll be shaky up there. We'll see. That is one big top you are building..

Re: Hardtop build
The top we cut yesterday goes on a custom 26 bertram. The last one Jeff cut is actually bigger. It is 96” wide by 138” long. It goes on a 34 venture. We just got an order and are finalizing shape for a top that will be 121” wide x 140” long.
