Hello​,
wondering if they make a top for my bass boat.

Or what info is needed.

It is a 1981 Glastron HPV 165, 16'2" bass fishing boat.

Here is a pic if it helps.

I'm not sure, but I'm guessing a bimini top? That's the most common one I hear about...

Really just something to get a little shade if we're fishing in an open area without shade. It gets very hot out here in central Florida. Especially out in direct sunlight.

But I'm not sure what they offer, if any, for my boat.

You can get anything your wallet can handle. There are the generic bimini tops which you measure your gunwales and the height you need, or you contact a marine canvas company and the make tou a custom top. Down here in Florida, they even have mobile workshops (converted 20' box trucks)

Thanks, I'll check them out.

I didn't know about the mobile guys, but it makes sense. I do mobile auto repairs for a living, so i don't see why there couldn't be for boats.

Thanks for the info.
