hardtop vs alaskan bulkhead

[svo13sg]

Trying to research but can't get any good data from arima website, does anyone know if the bulkhead top is taller than the normal hardtop, and by how much? I'm referring to SR19 and SR21.
Thank you

  I think - but don't know for sure - that the windshields on all of the SR19's, up until they converted to the forward-slant glass were the same, only the side windows were different.  All of the 19 hardtops prior to the windshield change will be the same overall height, regardless of bulkhead or not.  Forward-slant models will be taller, but also independent of bulkhead.
   All early-style 21's will be taller than the 19's because the deck mold was changed, raising the area where the bottom of the glass mounts by about 3" - don't know about the later ones.
  If you're worried about height for storage, the trailer will make the biggest difference by far - rollers, bunks, adjustment, type of axle, tire diameter, etc..  For the boats, only 6" to 8" from shortest to tallest.

The bulkhead and the hardtop are the same thing with the only difference is they hard backing on the back.  Thus, the height of the bulkhead top and hardtop should be exactly the same.  I have not compared the two side by side, but in talking with Don from Arima, the bulkhead option is simply them adding the hardback to the hardtop.
