Fiberglass T-Top (Optional)
The T-top is made of welded powder coated
aluminum and is designed to accommodate
radio antennas, radar antennas and naviga-
tion lights. It is equipped with an overhead
storage compartment and overhead lights. It
could also be equipped with optional outrig-
gers and/or rod holders.
Radar and electronics antennas must be
mounted near the center section of the T-top
in the area above the legs.
Do not mount any antennas or equipment to
the brow area or to the rear of the top. The
T-top is not design to support the weight of
accessories in these areas.
The warranty for the T-top will be void if the
top is modified in any way or heavy accesso-
ries like life rafts or electronics lockers are
mounted to the top. Additionally, if items like
radar antennas, spotlights and other acces-
sories are mounted in the wrong location,
the warranty could be void. If you intend to
add equipment or make modifications to the
T-top, you should contact Pursuit Customer
Relations to make sure the equipment you
would like to add or the intended modifica-
tion will not void the warranty on the T-top.
If an aftermarket T-top is installed, it must be
designed with front legs that are bolted to
the console on either side of console seat
and the rear legs bolted to the cockpit sole at
the rear of the console. There are aluminum
plates or wood reinforcement in the laminate
in these areas for securing the T-top leg
bases. Both front and rear legs should also
have brackets that are thru-bolted to the
console just below the windshield to provide
additional stiffening for the T-top. If you
intend to install an aftermarket T-top on your
boat, please contact your dealer or Pursuit
Customer Relations.
T-Top Canvas
Because the aluminum frames vary slightly,
the side curtains and front curtain are cus-
tom made to each boat at the factory. Slide
the front and side curtains into the slide
tracks on top of the windshield wings. Start
the zippers, but DO NOT zip closed. Snap
the front curtain first, then the side curtains
to the deck and then the T-Top legs. The
side curtains will have to be stretched
slightly to pull out the wrinkles and reach the
snaps. Once the curtains are snapped in
place, close the zippers.
If you have an optional drop curtain, slide it
into the slide track on the back of the T-top
and attach it to the rear of the side curtains.
Snap the drop curtain to the deck and cock-
pit.
! DANGER
The transom door should be closed
and properly latched whenever the
engine(s) are running. Never open the
transom door while underway or in
rough sea conditions. In certain situa-
tions, an open transom door could
allow a substantial amount of water to
enter the cockpit creating a potentially
dangerous condition. Operating the
boat under power with the transom
door/gate open may allow persons to
fall overboard and into boat propellers
or to be lost in open water.
! CAUTION
Periodically inspect the transom door
fittings for wear, damage or loose fit.
Any problems should be inspected
and corrected immediately.
! CAUTION
Care should be exercised to prevent
damage to powder coated surfaces. if
the surface is scratched, chipped or
worn exposing the aluminum, it
should be resealed to prevent corro-
sion from forming. If corrosion is
allowed to form, it could cause the
powder coating to bubble and lift
away. Contact your dealer for repair
service.
