Does anyone out there have a copy of the Flying Top installation instructions? If you do, could you send it in. I am trying to work the installation details of installing both the Flying Top and the Sun Top on an 18 Outrage.

Kamie,

Both of the items you are looking for are already located on this site in the downloads section...
http://www.whalercentral.com/download...nloads.php

And then in the Installation and Instruction Sheets here:

Joe,
The only Flying Top instructions I could find say for 16/17 Foot, not the 18 Outrage?

Kamie,

You are right...
I have a set of plans for Mills but just haven't had time to scan them...
I can send you photos of my fly top setup until I get time to scan the original instructions...
It is identical to the Sun Top but has shorter sliders....

Thanks Joe, now that Evenstar is sans t-top I am looking for some good sun protection and with the new engine a longer boating season.

What new engine? Did I miss something?
Inquiring minds want to know.....

I decided not to fix the Merc and so I sold it. I have an empty transom waiting to get a final price and bank approval for a new 150HP E-TEC.

kamie,

Now you're talking...
I am thinking about that same engine myself.
Just can't decide between the 150 and the 115...
I know... I should just go for the 150.... :)

The only issue now is the cold. Not looking to get above 40 for the near future and I have lots to do on the boat, from refinishing the console to finishing the teak to fiberglass repair in the rigging tunnel, and that is just the start of the list.

kamie,

Did you see the "new" Flying Top Set Installation Instructions in the Downloads section?

I finally had time to scan them and put them together.
