Need pop-top ideas

[Bill Bairley]

I had to haul Impatience, my G23 along with her disabled trailer(broken forward axle) on a flatbed truck 40 miles to the trailer place to be fitted for a new trailer. The boat was loaded on the truck stern first, and when I arrived, the pop top was gone. The wind tore it right off, bending a stainless lifeline stanchion.Does anyone have any ideas on a replacement?I guess this could be an opportunity to make some modern modifications, but I'm not sure what.Any input will be appreciated.My friend suggested a golf cart roof.

Hi Bill, I own a G23 myself and honestly don't know what I would do myself if I were in the "same boat". There is an example of a G23 with extensive work done to it that may give you ideas. You may have seen it already but incase you haven't you can see it at www.geocities.com/grampianowners. Hope the address is correct. Good luck amd good sailing. Peter.
