Hi - We’d like to be able to pin up the center strata glass piece above the windshield up to the hardtop to get some airflow in the cockpit. I can’t see where there’s been anything made to connect it other than two snaps all the way at far port and starboard of the hardtop, which clearly will not reach the center panel. Has anyone Jerry rigged it up using the snaps or another solution?
2006 3560
Thanks!

 4Palms, My 4460 was configured for this with two snaps in the hard top for the front isinglass to connect to when it was open. It worked really well. I attached a picture of how this was done. They just used two snaps on the isinglass that were used to connect to the top of the windshield. I wanted to do something similar with my new Regal but the inside of the hardtop is finished with material! |

Heavy Duty Velcro may work in my case, that is if I can get it in White which would match the fabric under the hard top. Then go with black on the strata glass.
For 4Palms I would suggest just adding the snaps where you need them. It's pretty easy and I think your hard top should be able to accept snaps on the underside. Drill two small holes, add some silicone and screw the snaps in. Just make sure your hardtop is double layered like my 4460s was, I'm pretty sure it is but I've never looked at a 3560 close.

Hi 4palms, My 2007 4460 is just like tc33obx. Unzips on both sides and 2 snaps at the top. We have it up about every time we have the boat out never had a problem. Only issue is the zipper pulls flap around a bit from the wind and the hardtop has been scratched as a result. Small scratches but scratches nonetheless. ![]()  |

philiphancock,
I like the Aluminum hard tops glossy appearance. That looks nice. My hardtop was fiberglass and the underside was finish with non-skid except for the last 5 inches at the edges. I guess the only good reason for that was that I never noticed the zippers scratching the hardtop!
