Sweet looking top! Did you have to tie it to the console to stiffen it? I ordered my Helix 12 gen 2 yesterday. I'm doing about the same to my new boat. I can't seem to get it rigged fast enough! Good luck with the finished project! smile

It has 4 horizontal stand offs and 2 diagonal. It was not stable before adding those..it's very stiff now. We will see Saturday morning!

That's great connection points. I found a final text I sent you didn't send somehow. I was mentioning gusseting the T to the console. Free standing Tee's generally wobble or tear free from the deck. That looks great! Looking forward to heavy fish pics!

Is that a Fishmaster top? If so, you are probably going to have problems with the bolts on the saddles loosening up. After so many re-tightenings, the SS bolts will strip the aluminum threads in the saddles. I eventually had everything welded on mine. I lucked out and was able to sell it to a guy whose console was exactly the same width as mine.

Thanks gentleman. I will do my best on the big fish pics!..The top is a dolphin. it's seems to be very stable and has zero movement or give when I try and flex it side to side.... I red thread locked all the bolts which were all oversized. It appears to be a good solid top...time will tell.
