[QUOTE="ndlongshot, post: 110904, member: 244"] I'm in the minority... I hate not having the option of putting up the top. It provides such a relief and extends time on the water especially when fishing with family. It really does change the comfort level on the boat. I had an old side console lund as my first boat and I did all the measuring and ordered the appropriate size off iboats and mounted it myself in an evening. Never regretted it. My new lund has a sporttop with full enclosure that snaps to the windshield if I want it. I ordered the entire hardware/canvas set online from an overstock company and saved thousands instead of ordering through the dealer here in town. Ran me about 650 and an afternoon of installation. No drilling. Mine mounts into my track system. Comes totally out after removing 4 pull pins. I dont think you will regret it, and if there are times its in the way or its just you on the boat, simply lay it down or take it out of the boat. They are a great accessory convenience to have available when you need or want some shelter. Especially in the rain! Also, its not so much fishing that they get in the way for me as the the back of my boat is still wide open, its when its windy on the water that boat navigation gets tricky as they catch much more wind. But the fishing argument is mute in my opinion if you get the right top. [/QUOTE]
