Exterior Equipment
11.4 Hardtop
Hardtop
The hardtop consists of molded fiberglass top
and integrated arch that is bolted to the deck. It
is equipped with stereo speakers, LED overhead
lighting for the cockpit and speakers. It could
also be equipped with an optional retractable
sunshade. Removable hatches in the hardtop liner
provide access to wiring and rigging for hardtop
mounted accessories and antennas.
Stereo speakers and courtesy lights are built into
the headliner. The courtesy lights are activated
by the HARDTOP LTS RED/BLUE switches in the
helm switch panel.
The top is designed to accommodate radio anten-
nas, radar antennas and navigation lights. It is not
designed to support the additional weight of items
like a life raft. Radar and electronics antennas
must be mounted in locations on the top designed
for these antennas.
The warranty for the hardtop will be void if the
top is modified in any way or heavy accessories
like life rafts are mounted to the top. Additionally,
if items like radar antennas, spotlights and other
accessories are mounted in the wrong location,
the warranty could be void. If you intend to add
equipment or make modifications to the hard top,
you should contact your dealer to make sure the
equipment you would like to add or the intended
modification will not void the warranty on the top.
Retractable Aft Sun Shade (Optional)
The sun shade extends to provide shade for the
rear cockpit. Electric actuators on each side of the
hardtop extend or retract the awing. The actua-
tors are controlled by the Shade switch on the
starboard side of the cockpit near the 120/220
volt outlet.
The Shade switch is a momentary three-position
rocker switch. The center position is off. Move
the switch in one direction to extend the sunshade.
Move the switch in the opposite direction to retract
the shade. The switch automatically returns to
the off position when it is released. Limit switches
built into the actuators automatically stop the
sunshade when it is fully extended or retracted.
Refer the retractable sun shade operation manual
for additional operation instructions and mainte-
nance information for the sun shade.
11.5 Weather Enclosure
The side curtains, front clear connector and aft
curtain are custom made to each boat at the
factory. To install the curtains, close the center
section of the windshield and attach the clear
connector to the slide track at the front of the
hardtop and snap it to the top of the windshield
frame beginning with the center snaps. The clear
connector will have to be stretched just enough
to pull out the wrinkles and reach the snaps on
the windshield.
