Folding T-Top?

Has anyone seen or have a folding, collapsable, break away, etc...T-Top? I'm getting a new 20' center console and prefer the T-Top to a bimini but priority is I want to be able to get it into the garage for storage. Too tall with a standard T-Top.

Anyone seen or heard of such a thing?

Thanks,

Capt. Craig

You could probably do it. An easier solution might be to have the top be in two pieces so that you have a bottom portion that is fastened to the sole, and then the top half slots into that and is secured by either pins or screws. This would be pretty easy to take apart and easier to fabricate than a folding one.

might try a T-Topless - it install in minutes (no holes) and folds down in seconds with 2 quick release pins ...



Take a look at the T-Topless on this 2008 Triumph 170cc ...


The Triumph is truly a plastic boat - injection or roto molded - very interesting.

Who's got a Montauk? We have a special "Montauk T-Topless" version for you guys!


See the T-Topless and Shadow on the water (and highway):

> T-Topless trailering on the highway http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8-_6S18ahY , and
> ShadowTop at over 65mph: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXLT42GYh1I

Montauk-T-Topless on 2009 Montauk 170...






We've dropped the Shadow folding, stainless steel T-Top to just $897! http://ShadowTop.com


and added the Optional Spoiler to the Shadow..


and the Sunbrella(r) canvas (Black or Mediterrannean Blue Tweed) repels water like a duck ...

New Windshield and Side Curtains, which lace tightly to the T-Topless frame:


and Full Size Side Curtains, which zip onto the smaller curtains:


We just announced our new Gear Loft, custom fit to the T-Topless and Montauk-T-Topless to provide overhead storage for up to 6 PFDs (life preservers), towels, throwable cushions and other light gear, freeing up floor space or other valuable storage lockers for dry goods like tackle, food or coolers ...

http://rnr-marine.com/Montauk-T-Topless.shtml#Gear-Loft

We just announced our new gear Loft for the entry level $893 Shadow folding T-Top. It holds 3-4 PFDs, and saves a lot of room in smaller boats!

http://rnr-marine.com/RNR-Marine_Sha...-2011mar02.pdf

http://rnr-marine.com/Purchase.shtml#Shadow-Gear-Loft

We've dropped the price on our American made Shadow folding T-Top from $893 to $699 for the 4th of July (through July 8th).


About the same price as a stainless steel bimini ... but so much more convenient for fishing, all-stainless steel, Sunbrella canvas and welded-on fittings that will last forever!

Our T-Topless Shadow folding, stainless steel T-Top is on sale for $699 for Labor Day!

http://rnr-marine.com/Purchase.shtml#Buy_Shadow

$699 through 9/17 !
