Just a tiny bimini that I can't fit under at present...can't stand up.

I was able to have a hardtop made from a (not too) old mold of a Hardtop that was built for a Scout Boats center console, probably a 28 or so. Dimensions were good for my 31. You could call any of the CC manufacturers and get dimensions and have one built that suits. I'll be happy to send you a pic, just pm me back.

I just had a leaning post done for my STRIKE by Welding World in Miami (305)778-1221 www.weldingworldinc.com
They did a great job at a great price and I know that they ship all over.

I like it, Ricky; where is she berthed? I’d like to swing by and see her if she’s near Morehead or Beaufort.

Hey Tommy,

She's still in Charleston, I"m bringing her up the weekend of Mar 10- I'll be the first to admit she's a diamond in the rough...I took UVs advice when he said "what you're buying is the iron". This go-round all the work will be cosmetics since the repower has already been done. Looking forward to the NC rendezvous this year!!

I used Atlantic towers in NJ quality was good for the price and they can ship anywhere it’s two piece. Good luck with her any work you do is a labor of love.

Great looking 31. I know you will enjoy your new boat and you will really enjoy the Yanmar engines as they are very fuel efficient and in my opinion great performers. Look forward to meeting you at the reunion if not before. Town Creek is just across the bay and are Yanmar dealers. Steve is the owner/manager and is always available.
