Professional Aluminum T-Top Canopy (Adjustable, Ø44mm, 200 x 140 cm)

This professional aluminum T-top (standard model) offers excellent protection and functionality for a wide range of medium-sized boats. Its frame is built from Ø44mm tubing, anodized for enhanced corrosion resistance and a sleek appearance. While lighter in construction than the Heavy Duty version, this T-top is plenty strong for typical boating conditions, and at the same time it’s easier to install and remove due to its lower weight (~19 kg). The resin joint connections at the console and canopy frame help absorb vibrations and prevent stress cracks or loosening over time.

Adjustability is a key advantage of this model – thanks to the sliding bracket design, the top can be adjusted to fit consoles of various widths up to about 100 cm. This makes it suitable for many setups: from narrow consoles on RIBs to wider helm stations on fiberglass runabouts. Once configured, the four legs of the T-top bolt securely to the deck and console, providing a sturdy foundation.

The upper section features a 200 x 140 cm canopy, offering a generous shaded area. It’s made from the same high-quality ATLAS fabric as the Heavy Duty model – waterproof and UV-stable – meaning you can count on its durability under sun exposure and through spray or rain. The blue color complements marine aesthetics and reduces eye strain under the shade. The canvas attaches via a strong Velcro and fastener system, making it easy to tension and also to remove if needed. For example, you might take the fabric off at the end of the season or in anticipation of a storm to protect it, and then reattach it with minimal effort later.

On the move, this standard T-top performs excellently at cruising speeds. When properly installed (all bolts tightened and console mounts reinforced), the top remains steady and doesn’t produce annoying rattles or vibrations. Its design is optimized for normal conditions – up to around 25 knots – which covers the needs of most recreational boaters. If you plan extremely high-speed runs or very rough conditions, the Heavy Duty model might be more suitable, but for general use this T-top provides an ideal balance of strength and lightness.

Applications & Recommendations: The professional aluminum T-top (standard) is great for boats roughly 4.5 to 6.5 meters in length. It adds comfort and sun protection to center-console style boats – for example, center-console fishing boats, recreational RIBs, fast gliding boats, etc. For fishing purposes, it can serve as a base to mount a couple of rod holders (on the frame), further increasing its utility. Additionally, the T-top shields your instruments (GPS, fishfinder, gauges) on the dash from direct sunlight and glare, making them easier to read during the day.

In summary, this adjustable aluminum T-top is a universal solution to enhance onboard comfort. It combines professional-grade design with a lighter build, which makes it accessible and practical for many boat owners. With it, you’ll gain the shade you desire and give your boat a stylish, finished look, all while increasing its value and enjoyment in use.
