Pop top enclosure

Crazy Dave Condon · Jan 23, 2015

LARRY;

You can order the frame from the forum store. call me back as you will need to advise the year of the boat which is important. I know who makes that frame.

If that dos'nt work I have a frame, maybe two frames, including the actual canvas one white and one blue, and I can measure up tonight. Chris

The frame is bent in angles to accommodate that pop top enclosure which is why many are unable to make it as they do not own a tube bender .

Larry... If you are making your own you may want to consider a way to make the "arch" collapsible. I have not yet found a good way to store it when not in use. Not sure if anyone has done such a mod before.

Fred.On my 23.5 I cut my frame in half and had a sleeve made to slip it back together.Made Sunbrella storage bag for it.and poptop.Lot easier to store

Try The Canvas and Upholstery Centre in St. Augustine. Hunt Bowman is building me a Pop Top Cover for my 2008 H25. He may have the size specs for yours.
I'm designing my pop top with two arch pipes and a window in front. The idea is to have a quasi dodger so one can lower the hatch and sail away. Wondering if anyone else has built something like this.

Andre,

Please share pics of the H25 pop top once you get it. I've been waiting for someone to have one made.

Great to hear that. I know the manufacturer oh too well. You are ordered to enjoy sailing this year or walk the plank matey!

I added some plastic clips to the top of the rear berth and store the frame clipped in so it lies flat against the top out of the way. Works great, never in the way. I can try to get some pics if that sounds confusing.

Fred · Apr 23, 2015

Ashley... That sounds like a great idea. A picture would be appreciated. How were the clips installed with out puncturing through to the cockpit?

I cut mine in half and added a slightly smaller metal dowel. I can store it under the seats now .

Here you go, I snapped a pic with my phone yesterday. I did this aver 10years ago but I think I just used some short stainless screws.

Hey Dave, I don't see the frame for sale on the Hunter site. I have the same situation. I have the top, but no frame.

call them and ask for Al. If the store cannot get it for you which they should be able to I will tell you where to go via email from you only.
