Receipts add up to just under $30k for everything including the misc and including the $'s you see here. Fishing Boats Unlimited appears to have done the work and it was all custom. Good luck!Pete wrote:QR_BBPOSTI might have the original receipt from the previous owner for the hardtop work, I'll let you know.BigRedandJodie wrote:QR_BBPOST Beautiful boats. I love the hardtops. Does anyone know if they are Carver options or aftermarket? If aftermarket, the manufacturer?

Re: 2001 Carver 444: survey says???
The previous owner of my boat purchased my hardtop in the US, not sure where. He said he put $30,000, CND into it as well. I can tell by looking at it that there was a lot of structural work involved in addition to all new canvass. The installation was done in Canada at a marina.
To be honest, I love having the hardtop, however, if it wasn't on there when I bought the boat, I more than likely would not consider spending the 30 grand to do it. On my 356 I would peel the flybridge canvass back from time to time while travelling through the trent canal system. IMHO, it's nice to be able to do that.
There are pro's and con's for sure.
