I would call it skip, but it does not look like the standard Arima skip. Have to pull the cover and double check :wink:.
Had a glorious SR19 Finnesse.
You can not change the length of your life, but boating does increase its width and depth.

Have you seen the top on SFF's boat?

This looks EXACTLY like it...a HT top on a stainless tower.  Truly awesome!

Yep, that's the turtle top SFF has on his 17.  It is so cool because it gives a lot more protection from the elements than a regular skip tower.  The model advertised already has the framing so no ability to apply it to a smaller boat that could be provided perhaps via Salt Boss

Turtle top?   :stooges:

The stainless steal is the only part that is the same. The same guy that made mine is the same person who makes the stainless steal rack for Arima. The Top it self is the same as a 19' hard top. Arima has never sold a boat with my top and the stainless steal rack together. Mine is a one of a kind :wink: I'm not sure if that's good or bad.

You would need a different frame, compatible with your model.
