Re: Aristo Craft
Blue... The engine package is a 120hp I think with a OMC intermidiate, I need to find an outdrive.. I haven't been able to play on it as much as I would like.
hope ya get her up and running like ya want. they seem like respectable boats. i've seem pics of the blue. there very good lookin in blue. wish mine was blue, but,
i've got (very bright) green......probably wouldn't be my first pic of colors, but it does catch the eye........
good luck finding a top. i'll keep my eye open for ya....
I threw one away about a year ago. You might want to re think the hard top, beside being hard to find they weight a ton and are always in the way. At least a soft top can be folded completely out of the way
bet kupps is crying over that. that ya threw it away.
they do feel heavy when sliding it. i bet it's a 4 man (maybe 2 if ya can control it) project to get it off.
yep, they're in the way. better duck low, or you'll remember next time for the knot on yer forhead from forgettin to duck the time before......so far. i've not minded duckin though. and i've certainly enjoyed the top in the cooler weather. all the fisherman look so cold, dressed in there cold whether gear. me, i'm hidein under my hard top in just a shirt...very cozy with the back canvas up too.... i reserve judgement for how i like it in real hot weather, as i just aquired it this fall.....it may be hot under there. though i think about it and i do remember puttin up the top on my old boat when it is real hot out. for the shade value of it. so i have high hopes for it in the summer too......
kupps, check out this aristo craft web site. he don't say he's got hard tops but it might be worth a call to see if he has any info for you...i just called him a week or so ago and have a oem blower and hard top slides on order. so the phone # is good. don't know about the email address, i didn't get a reply from it. anyways.....

don't know if i'll get the blower or slides either, as i just intiated the transaction, but did send him my bread, and he says he'll send me the blower he has on hand, and back ordered the slides till he gets around to makeing the next batch was the way i understood it. nothing ventured, nothing gained i guess..........
at the very least he was a nice fella to talk to about aristo craft boats to on the phone...
