Unfortunately the tooling for the supports is not available anymore and you have to go to a shop and have them fit it for you and make the braces without any drawing from Tiara. Install cost is a function of ho you know in the yard and what your DIY abilities are. The $15k used to include the supports and mounting hardware- it does not anymore.
I was looking at mid to high $20's and had to pass. Unfortunate. Their tops are the best!
Sasha,
Yes, Brian quoted me the same. Brian is extremely helpful.
You’re right, Tiara makes the best so I’m going with them.
A friend just had a custom 3rd party hardtop built somewhere else for his 36’ Tiara for near the same price. After delivery he found it wasn’t even rated for offshore!
Unfortunately, 2 weeks after I ordered it and paid for it, Brian told me the factory is shutting down due to the virus. I guess I’ll just have to wait. Not to worry, I’ve got plenty of projects to keep me busy. Mainly, painting the radar arch!
Good luck!
