I've had a couple of these made in the last couple years.
Stainless bows either designed to break in to 4 pieces (for easy fish box storage) or the last one I had made, we used stainless pipe hinges so the bows fold for easy storage.
We use the aft two rod holders so no hardware mounted on the gunnels.
For stabilization, we used one strap on each side to snaps mounted under the rubrail (out of the way and unseen).
The canvas can be made from either Sunbrella (heavy) to sta-moid (light).
The canvas goes to a track on the back of the hardtop and wraps the stainless bow to a zipper.
Very simple design and easy to take down and store. $1,000.00 to $1,500.00 depending on how fancy you get with it.
