hello everyone,

I'm very happy to find this discussion forum for Boston Whaler owners as I'm a new owner of a beautiful "1992 27" offshore" with original 200 hours on the hull and the engines, I absolutely love everything about this mean fishing machine,
however i need to install a T top on it as it came with a bimini top which is not very practical for my use,
I've been searching online for months and couldn't find any parts for this specific model of Boston Whaler so I'm wondering if other owners here can help me find a T top for my boat,

Your help Is highly appreciated,

Here is a picture of my boat for model reference

Cheers

C.E. Smith is a manufacturer/dealer for rod holders, T Tops, and trailer parts. They currently have a T Top in clearance (trade show use) that is adjustable/universal. You may want to look them up and see if it works as well as shipping details. Good luck.

Thank you very much,
i checked their website but they still don't have the adjustable T top listed online, anyway i wrote them a message asking about it so i guess I'll wait for them to reply before going for a locally manufactured T top as recommended by BW when i wrote them,
Thanks again,

Try the "Clearance" download. I stumbled on the T-Top when looking for rod holders.

I think you are looking for a hardtop.

A t-top would not be practical since the legs would connect to the floor.

Phil, I think you are right. I was wondering how you could get a t-top on that boat.....

In Egypt, may have to find an old fiberglass hard top and then have someone custom fabricate an aluminum frame.

Beautiful boat. Where do you do your boating? Nile? Mediterranean?

Has anybody noticed that the boat in the photograph that is attached to the original post here is not even an Offshore 27 model yet? Or even a 1992 model 27?

Good eye Silent.

As near as I can see, it might be a 1992 25' Walkaround.
This is as near as I can see from just the one photo.
See this model here:

I think many sellers provide the wrong model names out of ignorance.

I think his photo is a 1990 Whaler 27 Walkaround WD and not Offshore.

In 1990 Whaler produced a Whaler 27 Walkaround WD
and a 27 Full Cabin (FC) WD.

The cabin side windows of the 27' model are much larger then the ones in his photo.
The 1990 27' Walkround actually has 2 windows on each side. This one has one smaller one.

Therefore it has to be a 25' Walkaround model that is 27' in length because of the Pulpit.

I know they have to give the Total Length overall but the pulpit is deceiving and not included in the model name.
A 27' model is 29' in length etc.

I also agree that he is looking for a hardtop as shown in my link above.
