Let me get into some detail. The canopies were made by Texstar. They were $12,000 and are 500 mph impact resistant poly. The glass work I am needing done is 80% cosmedic. The canopies are not being structurally mounted to the altered deck as it is more a platform for them to sit on. They are being mounted( bolted ) from the inside of the canopy with aluminum which is then being bolted to the bulkheads and stringers. I sent the canopies to a local fab shop and had and all the pieces made. There is minimal cutting,of the deck, involved and the one bulkhead at the dash is slightly going to be touched . You guys bring up a good point on break-away or staying affixed due to a rollover. There has not been any mounting holes drilled at this time. One more thing. The canopies are cut to the more common 1/4 style. Motion, Spectre, Skater, ..........

Nice choice. Those are the best you can get (Textars) they are the actual ones used on the F-16's. I kind of see what you are attempting to do now. the mounting brackets have been fabbed and now you need to shape the deck to meet up with them (if i follow correctly)

For a minute there, I thought you guys were steeling my thunder. Less talk and more bashing.

Once again, your reply came up while I was typing. I'm not very fast yet. Yes, thats correct. I just want to make sure, cosmetically, I doen't get any stress cracks and get good adhesion. If you look at the Spectre's, add # 3, just like that minus the outside aluminum around the canopy.

Ok then take that 30 foot ark you call a boat and buy a real boat... How did I do?

Audiofn

Only problem I see with your "fix" is that you will likely have to grind the boat...... That is always one that most people can not take seeing let alone doing themselves When Chart and I ground down my boat he could not watch and he now knows I am a little wrong because I was laughing the entire time I was doing it. Maybe you can come up with a sort of shim/spacer that you can make off the boat and put in place? Then if this ever needs to come off it is totally stock.

Audio I arree. Motion is not known to be the best,but an 01 for $30,000, 300x's, 210 hrs,missing 1 lower and 2 props, you would be a dumb azz not to buy it. I doubt you will ever see 90 let alone 110. Hope I'm not a new enough member to kid with you!
