Pop Top Question

Post by simvin222 »

Just bought a Venture 222 '81 and it is missing the resting brackets of the "poo top" I need to know how long they are before I go ahead and make them myself out of one inch aluminum tubing. Thanks

When it's up, it's flat, so they need to be the same length. The next restriction is going to be the length of the aft support hitting in the closed position. After that make sure the sliding mount in the mast works with the length you choose. GL
