Hardtop on a 225 Tournament

Has anyone ever mounted a hardtop on a 225 Tournament? If so, do you have any pictures?

Hardtop

In the Tournament Gallery page 4 there is a 245 with a hardtop. That is the only one that I have seen

Thanks leek. I wish they still made a 24 Tournament. A wide beam 23 Tournament would be even better!

I think a hardtop on a DC would be top heavy.
I like the Grady DCs! They're water toy friendly but still very fishy!
Some even have a head!

I think Grady offers one on the 275. That is one sweet rig with the hardtop. 8)

I own the 245 with the hardtop. It doesnt't have a thick hardtop like the factory jobs.. The top frame is 1" box aluminum with a thin sheet of fiberglass attached. It's light and serves the purpose. I think the full thickness fiberglass would be heavier. With the curtains, it keeps me dry in all conditions. :wink:

It does work like a sail, though when trying to drift.
