I just LOVE my Super Trampoline T-Top ! I installed it on a new 24' Carolina Skiff. Very easy install. I used all your options stuff, antenna bracket,LED rear running light,& flat plates for port & starboard lights. GPS antenna & all light wiring went inside the tubes, for a very neat job. My local canvas guy made my surround. I was able to get these really neat cup-holders, that mounted on each side of my console on E-bay. I mounted the top with a kit I got from you, with G-flex, & 52- hundred, top is ROCK SOLID ! Thank you for all your help, anytime I needed questions answered.

When I first contacted you about your "Tower in a Box" I was inquiring if you or anyone had made the tower fold forward, and at that time you indicated that you had never seen it done. Well being here in land locked Alberta I need to travel 1100km to get to my favorite fishing grounds so tarping and stream lining the boat is a priority. So here it is mounted on a 1999 Bayliner Trophy 2052, nicely folds forward and rests right on the flat spot at the front seat location. With the height of the handrail being nearly the same the original travel tarp fits right over. The Bimini also folds down but is up in these pictures to be sure I had clearance for it during the installation. Did the install myself and it went well, being an equipment designer myself I found most parts nicely designed and well made. One suggestion I would make is to add a small (3/32") center hole in the nylon pads that one adjusts for angle. I drilled one blind hole on the inside of each half pad and put a short roll pin inside to keep the halves aligned when indexing them to the hull.
Still need to install the light kit and move my GPS antenna to the top but very happy with the Tower overall.
Thanks

Hello again Ms Golden:
I am very pleased with my new arch top. It is exactly what I have wanted all along. It makes my boat seem so much bigger. Here are some photos of the fellas mounting my new top. What a fine job they did. They looked after my boat as though it were their own. Very nice work. Yesterday, I towed the boat to weather Stopper Canvas to get the new enclosure made. It will be ready in a few weeks.
Thanks again. Bryan Wilhelm |
Shelley,
I just wanted to drop you all a note and express my gratitude. I know it was not a smooth easy job, and things did not go as planned.
I am truly grateful and want you all to know that going above the norm has not gone unnoticed. If nothing else be assured you have another satisfied customer in me, and being a small business owner myself, I know that means something to you.
Attached is a picture of the end result.
Thanks,
Bud Baringer |
  
I have attached a few pictures of the tower I recently purchased from you after the boat it was attached to was totaled in an automobile accident. The tower parts are unbelievably strong. I included one picture of the pickup that was towing the boat.

Shelley,
I just want to tell you that I am very pleased with the Arch. It is well constructed and pleasing to look at. I am also happy with your installation crew, Jeff and his helper( sorry I did not get his name! ). They did a clean, professional installation. They came on time as promised and worked in adverse conditions. It was hot and sticky and those guys sweated but they made the
install look easy.
So kudos to your whole team!
Thank you again!

Shelley--It's taken me a while to get these to you. Sorry about that. I love the new tower and canvas. More importantly, so do my wife and my son. We are very well protected now from the elements, and being in the San Francisco Bay Area it's a necessity. I really like how solid the whole top is compared to a flimsy bimini. You can really hold onto the tubes and they keep everything nice and tight. I will have to forward these pics to you separately, but you can clearly see the before, during and after shots. The curtains installed by Gianola's Canvas in Sausalito are perfect for my boat and the top. They did a great job as did Mike at Johnson Hicks with the installation of the tower. Thanks for all your help. I'm very happy with the final product.

Hi Shelly,
Just wanted to let you know were loving the top. Since these picture we have installed a radar dome / lights ,curtains and she looks great. People often ask what kind and year is the boat.
Most are surprised to hear 1983. Top is so much cooler than the canvas was. I have only one criticism !found it very difficult to run wires especially radar cable and keep them hidden, would of like to of had pre-drilled routes and pull strings. Maybe you do offer that and I didn't ask. Anyway just wanted to say thank you. We are very happy with product. Will send some updated pictures soon.
Sincerly

Shelley,
I wanted to share a couple of photos of my 24 Whaler Outrage after the installation of the Commerical T-top. It turned out great and I'm very happy with the product. It's everything I'd hoped for and great for the weather conditions in the Pacific Northwest. Thanks again to Atlantic for a fine product.
Best regards,
John Kaloper |
THANKS FOR ALL YOUR HELP WITH THE ARCH, IT IS VERY FUNCTIONAL FOR THE STYLE OF FISHING THAT I DO. HERE IS SOME PICS OF THE ARC. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO ADD I GET A LOT OF COMPLIMENTS AT THE BOAT LAUNCH TOO. |
Hi Shelley,
I intended to send this e-mail last week, but got busy. I can't tell you how happy I am with the top you fabricated for my boat. Kurt & his helper were a pleasure to work with and the install looks great.
Now I can't wait for the canvas to get finished.
Thanks again.
Regards,

Sandy and Shelley,
Sorry I have not sent these sooner. Here are two pics of my t-top.
I really like the top and think that it works great. However, my boat was not designed for a t-top and Scout DID NOT recommend putting one on this size boat. It did take quite a bit of extra
work to install it but I think it is very stable. I commute to work by boat almost year-round in Washington State weather and it holds up very well.
Bottom line: Personally I really like it, but I would not recommend it (or any t-top) to another Sportfish 160 owner due to the lack of Scout building the boat to accept a t-top.
But my next boat (one day), it will be bigger and I will also put an Atlantic Tower on it!!!!
Thanks!

Thanks

Good Morning,
Here are some pictures of the finished product. Very comfortable to fish around on the boat. As a matter of fact it is like having a brand new boat.
Thanks for a great product, and made in the USA to boot!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sandy here are pictures of the hard top you manufactured for my boat.
I am very pleased with the top, the fit was perfect, and I've gotten many compliments. I had new canvas make by Gioia Sail.
The boat is a 1984 Sea Ray 255 Amberjack, docked Molly Pitcher Marina in Red Bank.

These photos are of a 2005 Boston Whaler 205 Eastport. I installed myself. One word of caution for your customers. Make sure your Bimini is at it's highest point BEFORE you measure and install. I installed mine with the Bimini in place as shown in the pictures and now I can't put it into the stowed position because it hits the arch. That's what being 3-4 inches off can do to you. I would have to drill new holes (not gonna happen) or weld an extension onto the bottom of the arch legs (not gonna happen any time soon). I will say it's really nice to be able to have a place for the radar, lights, gps, etc.

Dear Sandy,
I purchased my arch and tow hitch from you folks at the NYC Boat Show about four years ago. It was installed by a vendor that you guys had recommended (don't recall his name). But the guy and his son showed up right on time and took great care in attaching it to my boat, and helping me decide the right location and angle for it so it worked and looked good. I believe that I got great value for the money.
Only suggestion I have is that the tow hitch instruction that I got (as I didn't want to put the pieces on when the install was there) were a bad copy of a copy and were small enough in size that making them out was impossible and I had to stop by your booth the following year to have someone draw it out for me.
Attached are a few shots of our boat that we spent two summers motoring up to the Georgian Bay(Lake Huron) from our home port in Cold Spring.

Attached is a picture of our rescue boat using the tower we purchased from you. We found your product has exceeded our expectations in terms ease of installation and durability.

Dear Shelly,
Per your mail request for customer response and photos of my Atlantic Towers Radar Arch, I'm enclosing photos of your Arch installed on my 1997 Aquasport 225 explorer I purchased the Arch at the Atlantic City NJ Boat Show several years ago and I'm very pleased with the installation (it was a do it yourself project), product is very well engineered, instructions easy to follow, no surprises.
This year I had a new canvas full enclosure installed by Archie's Boat Tops in South Amboy, N.J. and I have received many compliments on both your Arch and the canvas work.
Sincerely,
Mike Rebeck

I preformed the installation myself and had no problems. (Instructions and instructional DVD were good) Both the design and manufacturing of your product were very good. (I am a Mechanical Engineer) I would definitely recommend your product to others. |
 
Shelley, Here are the pictures of the tower installed on the "Bear Necessities" an F32 1975 Trojan Sedan Fly bridge. We have completely redone the entire boat and that included the installation of the Atlantic Tower Radar Arch for the Raymarine E-80 system GPS and Radar hardware. I chose to install with the pivoting bases so that it can be stored in the laydown
position. Arch has been both functional and has added beauty. We have received many compliments about how our boat looks. The directions and parts sent were ample. I installed the tower by myself. Here are a few varying scenes. Sincerely, John W. Wyssling |
