I have added hardtops to two previous boats. It really transforms the helm deck and gives the boat a much roomier feel. I feel they are far superior to canvas tops.

Do yourself a favor and price out a hardtop swap--it can be quite expensive depending on where you live and whether or not you'll be doing the work. In many cases it doesn't make sense to buy it and swap it over--just find one with the hardtop already installed.
