Hi all,
After looking at SeaCrafts and lurking here for the past 4-5 years I finally found a boat that I could afford and was worth picking up. She came with an uninstalled T-top that the previous owner picked up along the way but never installed, he stated that it was fabricated for a SF23 console. The top does fit the console nicely but I'm a little leery about just drilling holes and running screws into the deck. I pulled the bin under the CC and the aft tank hatch hoping that I could get some backing plates in there to sandwich the deck between but that's not happening due to lack of access. I guess my question here is what is the preferred mounting hardware for mounting the T-top to the deck? Are there any special toggle or mushrooming anchors I should be using to secure the top? Are there any backing blocks built into the deck around the console to allow for longer fasteners?
Here she is with the top sitting in place.
