29 fever top
 
Anyone have a top on a 29 fever? have any pics? Does anyone know if there was a factory made top for these boats and if it stored like on the 35'

Not sure what you mean by top??

Yes, Fountain made a bimini top for the new deck style 29's. My 2002 had one, and no, they don't store in the engine compartment like the 35 Lightning twin step side by side engine boats. My bimini usually sat in the garage because there was nowhere on the boat to put it. I bought an Anchor Shade several years ago and really like it ... just don't try to run with it up and put it down if any wind starts to blow. Have had two different bows in the anchor shade buckle from wind while sitting (not running the boat). A piece of aluminum round stock tack welded into each of the bows stopped anymore buckling. :D

When I bought my 27', the previous owner had the factory top and its attachments removed, so I also looked around for some pics.
Below are the only ones I found, and they're of a 29 btw.
The arrangement on the 27' is very similar anyway (If you're interested in some details just ask).
But no, I'm afraid you can't store it anywhere.
When unusued, you can only fold the forward arch together with the rear arch, rolling the bimini as shown in the first pic.
